RE: How good is www.play247.com!

I ordered 4 films last Thursday and received 3 of them on Saturday morning and the 4th arrived on Tuesday morning the following week. Great service, I can`t fault them, and I thought their prices on R1 discs were reasonable.

Sony 335 - Macrovision - Copying to VHS.

I have a modified Sony 335 from MRM. I can record to VHS fine with a R2 disc, but when I try to record a R1 to VHS, the picture turns out black and white - and is ver bad quality.

Is their anyway I can overcome this problem ?

My VCR is an Aiwa FX2500 Nicam Stereo connected to AV2 (scart 2) on my Hitachi WS TV. the DVD is connected to AV1 RGB.

RE: Just got my new player - SONY DVP-S735D

I got my Sony 335 from MRM last week - I ordered it on Tuesday and received delivery on wednesday before lunchtime. Excellent service - the machine rocks and it even plays Hollowman R1 RCE without any bother.

I have more than 50 DVD films now, of which 6 are Region 1. Now that I have a modified player - my Region 1 collection is bound to grow very quickly.

Multi Region Magic - ROCKS !!!!

Sony 336 - where is the best place to get it chipped ?

I have just bought a region 2 sony 336 and I want to send it away to get it chipped to play region 1 discs. I want to ensure that the mod I choose is RCE compat.

Can someone recommend the best company to send my machine to. ie a company who have a good reputation and one that will collect and return the unit to my address.

So far I have looked at techtonrics and upgradeheaven. Are these companies good ?

If I`m paying more than 100 for a mod, I want to know that my machine will be ok when I send it and that I will get it back ASAP in full working order.

Please advice ?

Thanks

Raymond.

Where online can you get a Hitachi 205 dvd player ?

My cousin wants to get a 205 dvd player but can`t find anywhere online to buy one. Because it is an old model all the sites where we have looked now sell the 305 and 505 players.

and also can the 205 be made multi region without installing a mod-chip ?

thanks

Sony 336 Multi Region ?

Can this machines be made multi region either by remote control or but using a software fireware update.

I don`t want to open the machine to insert a mod chip - cause its brand new and I want to keep the warranty.

thanks

RE: URGENT HELP required for my Phillips 711

It didn`t cost me a penny. I was actually given it by a friend - knowing that it didn`t work and if I could fix it then I could keep it. So nothing is lost.

I actually just go my PS2 yesterday and that play DVD`s fine - so I probably won`t bother much now about the 711.

URGENT HELP required for my Phillips 711

I aquired a secondhand 711 and it will not accept any discs. I have tried Region 1 and Region 2 disc. The tray goes in then opens again right away say Blocked on the screen. I can`t get into any of the onscreen menus either. It appears to be locked into a region other than 1 or 2.

I have read the manual and thats no help what so ever. I have also check for a remote region hack - and the only one I have found is on this site and you need to have an All-in-one remote to program.

Can anyone who uses or who had used the phillips 711 - suggest anything ?

Many thanks

Raymond.
