Playing CDs and DVDs 39 Using country/region codes Most DVD discs have country/region codes embedded in the disc data that limit where the DVD movie can be played. The country/region number is usually placed over a world globe printed on the DVD packaging and disc. DVDs without country/region codes play on any player or drive in any country/region. WARNING: You can change countries/regions only five times before the country/region code locks and becomes permanent. Once the code locks, you can play DVDs from that country/region only. If the country/region code locks, and you need help, contact Support. WinDVD is not preset to a particular country/region -- the country/region code of the first DVD movie you play determines your DVD country/region. For example, if you play a DVD with a country/region 1 code, WinDVD sets the current country/region of your DVD player to 1. If you later play a DVD that is coded for a different country/region, WinDVD asks if you want to set this as the current country/region.
