RE: Hack needed for new Philips all-in-one cinema system - MX1060D

Not sure what the codes are but the model for the unit is a DFR1600, allthough I still can`t find any info on this model number either. Will let you know if i find anything.

RE: Comments needed on Philips MX1060D

Tried the hack last night, didn`t do anything to the display. However before I tried the hack I put in a Region 1 disk and it worked, so it looks as though my player is region 1 and 2 compatible - very strange. It will also play Video CD disks.

RE: Comments needed on Philips MX1060D

Bugger :-(

Do you know if the hack just doesn`t work or does it screw up the system. I allready have a One 4All jobbie for my last Philips.

RE: Comments needed on Philips MX1060D

The unit does seem to decode the Pro Logic from the TV signal, however I have mine running through a ITV digital box.

According to the guy in the shop the unit will run CDRW disks, going to try one tonight.

£350.00, did you just buy the unit or home cinema kit, mine cost £420.00 :-(

RE: Comments needed on Philips MX1060D

The machine is Dolby pro logic 5.1, the manual doesn`t say anything about it supporting DTS however there is a DTS light on the display. Unfortunatly I don`t currently have any DTS dvd`s to test is with. As for the comparison with the Sony unit I can`t really comment as I`ve not seen one in action.

As far as I can tell it looks like a new system, the machine is actually a DFR1600, but I can`t seem to find much info on this either.

Not tried the usual Philips hack as yet, wanted to wait until I found some more info on the unit itself.

RE: Comments needed on Philips MX1060D

I have just purchased said machine and I`ve got to admit it`s deffinatley worth the cash, once youv`e set the surround system up it works flawlesly and the picture quality is also excelent. I used to have the LG Home Cinema kit but decided to change due to the lack of region hacks I could find for the thing. I`ll post any problems I get with the unit, if I get any that is :-)
