I live in Europe and therefore am region 2 - An American friend has moved in with me and we played her region 1 discs - then suddently the machine broke, kept freezing, then when you put a disc in of either region it cant see it and says bad disc. I bought another cheap player, and the same thing again - ok for a while then breaks, now I hadnt hacked the machine, it came ( as alot of cheap brands) already able to play all region.
I now have a decent player and did actually unhack it, it played a region 1 film fine, then second disc I put in it froze again, put a region 2 in and fine!!!!
I know all hacks come with a warning - so fine, I understand having a problem with my latest maching but WHY did the first two break? I many be getting paranoid but its like the movie companies have the discs somehow damage your machine.
Anyone else have this problem??
