Many thanks stormrob :-) I`ll try that first thing tomorrow morning...bit late in tonight you see!

Note that the one posted by yellowfin and Jamie Pollard is the one you want to use (the first one is actually for the 907 I think!)

There`s also a more in-depth explanation on this very site:

If this doesn`t work, then you need to upgrade your firmware (the hack only works on firmware version 3.23 or later). This will apply if you bought your player before 2000 and never took advantage of the free firmware upgrade to solve the Matrix bug.

Hi, I have the samsung DVD 709 & when i press the play and stop buttons I get the lang menu. But when i press "one" (for english) it goes back to the blue background with samsung across the middle.

I dont know what the firm is, but it didnt play the matrix & a man from the store came out becuase it was new & he put something in it and now it play all dvd`s.

Can somebody help me as i can`t get to the entering code part of the hack & im sick of that blue background :-)

please email me as well on 583krik[at]moc.liamtoh if you can help

Just follow the multi-region instructions from this point on and it should work - there`s no on-screen confirmation or prompt as such.

What you seem to be saying is that the player isn`t actually *telling* you to press REPEAT and so on - well, that`s normal! As a famous Nike advert once said, `just do it`.
