| 808537 | 2009-09-14 06:02:00 | OK, in case anyone later searches on this thread looking for an answer - Apparently you have to specify a multizone setting on devices that handle copyright material before you buy them. If you do that, and it turns out to be not multizone, you can request a refund. *sigh* |

| 808539 | 2009-09-14 06:59:00 | Yeah, I'm a bit afraid to do that - haven't been so daring before - I could fry Himself's optical drive, which wouldn't be a popular move. However, I think I'll have a go once we've used up all 5 changes. | annie (6010) | ||
| 808540 | 2009-09-14 07:02:00 | I wouldnt wait till you run out of changes. I dont think updating the firmware would fix it or reset it. Since its windows that picks up the changes not the dvd itself. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 808541 | 2009-09-14 07:43:00 | VLC, should get you around any region settings. | plod (107) | ||
| 808542 | 2009-09-14 20:35:00 | Thanks everyone, I'll contact Ascent today and see if they can help me sort it out, then I'll have a go at other fixes. | annie (6010) | ||
