Goodbye from Steve Hoyle

This is my last thread on this forum .... As a chipper I know only about players that need to be chipped and not about players that can be remote hacked ... for this reason when I see someone asking about a player that has no possible remote hack I tell them it has to be chipped and normally sign off with my name and URL which makes it quite clear
that I am a chipper and not a member of the public , I feel if I didnt do this people may think I was being sneaky.


In the past I was told off for saying messages like "We have a chip for this" or "buy a chip from us" , I was asked to stop doing this and instead only ever said things like "it has to be chipped" or similar then signed off with my URL.

Recently this too has been outlawed but as you will see from my post last time I was hauled up for this I gave DVD reviewer two choices .... I would stop posting all together on their forum OR would continue to post but sign off with my URL .. they never responded to this.

here is the important part of the thread if you dont want to read it all ....

I am more than happy to help using this log in of Steve Hoyle rather that the deleted login (Steve-www.*******.co.uk) but I will always finish my message with

Steve www.*********.co.uk

If i dont get to mention my site at all then I am simply acting as your unpaid technical helper ... time is money and there are other things I can be doing rather than helping to make your site no.1 for free :)

So I will help people the best I can without ever saying that I sell chips so long as I can finish my post with

Steve www.*******.co.uk

As I am no longer allowed to sign off with my URL that must mean I am no longer welcome here .... when this thread is dead then I`m gone .... Regarding paying 300GBP a month for an advert ... that is plain ridiculous .... who the hell can afford advetising bills like that ??? I have a banner on another forum for a fraction of that cost ....

If anyone wants to contact me then I will still be around on these other forums

OK Steves, this has gone far enough.

You have both been warned about scrounging free ad space on Reviewer in the past. Obviously it works, else you wouldn`t continually be here. While we value your contributions, we are not a charity and cannot allow this to continue.

The database is currently being cleared of all sneaky URLs and the like, and here is how we are going to monitor you from now on. Reviewer Ltd will be invoicing you for the equivalent of a standard permanently displayed region-hack forum button should we see this happening again (currently 300 pounds a month) as you are certainly enjoying this benefit. We will now see whether you are part of the DVD Reviewer community, or just out for a quick buck at our expense.
Kind regards

RE: Is there a software download available for multiregion DVD upgrade?

Cook your own Panasonic Upgrade Disk

You need a Authoring DVD drive costing around 2500GBP
A blank DVDR for Authoring around 10GBP
A Copy of a working Disk around 50GBP to Rent

So for only 2560GBP you can make your own disk


URL removed - pay the Reviewer guys some money Steve !

RE: SONY DVD NS300

I didnt make myself clear ..

THE remote that is available for hire or buying for a very expensive price here in europe will NOT convert Region 1 players ....

There are 4 different remotes for this NS series that cover different areas of the world ...... you need to be looking probabily in South America to find someone with the remote that converts the R1 players

RE: Panasonic RV31 multimod disc query

I have no plans to dominate the world ... infact I have no plans to reach the level of turnover that means I have to deal with that nasty VAT man :)) but having the chance to pay 40% tax for the first time in my life would be nice.... gonna have to do VERY well in Feb and March then :))

Thanks for that Chris W ... you obviously want the customer to get the best value for money or you dont care for Mr KK (and you wouldnt be the only one )

RE: IS THERE A REGION HACK FOR THE JVC XV-542?

We can reprogram the player using the compulink socket at the back and a special upgrade tool ... whether this voids your warranty is between you and JVC ... I wouldnt like to comment

Steve Hoyle
Cant give you a price as advertising is not allowed here ....

RE: IS THERE A REGION HACK FOR THE JVC XV-542?

Check the model number ... it is probabily XV-s42 and in this case there is no hack ... it has to be chipped or reprogrammed by a chipper
