Other remote control region code hacks known to work on some MediaTek players

---

The vast majority of these (hacks 13 to 17) use the "8888" number sequence - there are subtle
differences between these hacks, such as the order the keys are pressed. They may look identical, but
take care - they are different !
The remainder of the remote control number sequences seem to relate to other chipsets, and presumably
were retained at the request of manufacturers switching over to using MediaTek for the first time.

Tried and cant get it to work! :(

Sorry Stephen but was worth a try! Have not tried it on my machine yet! Let me know if you ever find out!

I would also like to know how to do this. I have a lot of region 1 DVDs and didn`t

realize that I would not be able to watch them when I bought this unit. I`ve been

quite dissapointed. Thanks if you can help - Domus
P.S. send any email response you may have to me at inimod.sumod[at].moc.liamg

If you send me your email address and I find the procedure somewhere else, I`ll

forward it to.
