RE: Samsung HR730

I found this....I hope it works because I have also bought this machine:-
Hack for DVD-HR730:

Using the remote:

1.Press the "0" button 5 times at approximately one second intervals;

2.Press the "REPEAT" button, (please ensure that it is the REPEAT button and NOT the "REPEAT A-B button).

3.Press the following sequence of numbers, 7,6,8,8,4 and 9, (76884 is the sequence for region 4 and as the 4 is pressed a small rectangle with a figure 4 in it will appear in the top LHS of the screen for a very short time, if number 9 is pressed during the time the number 4 is being displayed the 4 will change to a 9, however if you delay the 4 will disappear and the only effect of pressing 9 will be to change the TV channel. Hence it is imperative that you press the full 6 digit number sequence without any more than 1 second delay or so between digits).

4.Open and then close the tray.

If you followed the above your machine should now be region free, if it is not you probably took too long over entering the string of digits as I did the first time I tried it.

If your machine is not region 4 I would assume that the sequences of numbers contained elsewhere in the list of hacks for Samsung players will work for you. See below:

1.If your player is a Region 1 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 2, 9, 3, 3, 4 and 9 :

2.If your player is a Region 2 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 5, 7, 5, 3, 8 and 9 :

3.If your player is a Region 3 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 5, 6, 7, 3, 2 and 9 :

4.If your player is a Region 4 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 5, 6, 8, 8, 4 and 9 :

5.If your player is a Region 5 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 5, 3, 8, 1, 4 and 9 :

6.If your player is a Region 6 machine, the sequence of numbers to press is 2, 4, 4, 6, 2 and 9 :


Please let me know if it works

Thanks
