I used the Hack to make my 711 Multiregion.

When the line of ----- appears you do not re-enter the one for all code (0539 etc) but enter the code 222 222 005 255 using your Philips remote.

Although there are 11 spaces you still need to enter the 12 numbers.

Then Press Play and the words No disc appear.

Simply switch off and back on again.

This worked first time for me with no problems, hope this has been some help to you.

Dear Andy_Da,
Thanks for your help Andy, it was very nice of you to take the time in your busy day to write to me with advice on my phillips 622 dvd. I do have one question, for you if you can help me. According to one of the pages its says if you use the phillips remote one that it locks you out after 25 times is that so, or do you have to re-enter the number ....
Thank you again Andy for your help.
best wishes

Brian,
Although you are using Philips remote to enter the 12 digits (22222 etc), the Machine will not lock. The Hack you have been reading about that locks after 25 changes is different to the one you going to be using which does not use the One for All remote just the Philips remote.

By the Way, You will not have to re-enter the number every time you want to play a different regions disc.

Hope this has answered your Question and the hack is now working.

Dear Andy,
thank you so much for all your help, i follwed your instructions and i think I must have put in the wrong number first time so i did it again typed 0539 magic the 085 then got the line of dots------------- entered the number 222 222 005 255 and it worked amazing...Thanks for you help and your time Andy it is very much appreciated. And well i cant thank you enough, and happy viewing to you.
best wishes

Dear Andy,
Can i have some advice on my phillips 622 dvd if possible I`m not sure if you can help me but here goes.Past few days When i have stopped the dvd under the dvd symbol in the top left hand corner a number appeared first it was 7 then ten and today it was 14. I was wondering if I have put the wrong code in and that i have accidently put in the code that locks the regions in after 25 uses. As I was wondering what the numbers in the corner of the screen where for. Hope you can help me best wishes to you brian

Hello, I tried this and I can now see my region 1 discs but ONLY in black and white. Regions 4 still works well. Was it something I did? My machine is a Phillips 711
Anything you can tell me would be appreciated.
Thanx
