Multi-region Remote Hack

• Reports confirm that this hack works with the following LG players;  DVD-2330P, DVD-3000E, DVD-3350/1/E/C (and clones), DA-3520, DVD-4210, DVD-4710, DVD-4730, DVD-4750, DVD-4830, DVD-4950.

• It has been reported that this hack will work with the more recent version of the LG DVD-3200E but not on the earlier version running firmware 1.0.

• You can perform this hack as many times as you want and the currently selected Region will stick until you change it again.  Only a very long power cut may cause the player to revert to the factory default setting of Region 2 (in which case just perform the hack again). 
• An odd quirk of this hack is that even when you specifically set the player to Region 1 only, it will still play discs from Region 2!  This is actually quite useful if your collection consists of some RCE protected Region 1 titles and also Region 2 discs which do not (normally) have RCE.
• If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing

1. Power on the player with no disk in the drive

2. Press "PAUSE" on the remote

3. Enter "3 1 4 1 5 9" on the remote (the word COdE appears on the display)

4. Enter "0" on the remote (0 = All Regions, 1 = Region 1,  2 = Region 2, etc.)

5. Press "PAUSE" on the remote

6. Power the player off and then back on

• If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing "STOP" on the remote before you press "PAUSE" for the first time.
