Page 1 of PHILLIPS DVD710 HACK

Have tried to change the region setting to region 1 compatible using the OneForAll 6 remote as printed in Multi-Region Hacks for Philips DVD-750 but the onscreen display does not change to `

tell me exactly what you did and in what order

Hi Allan,
I switched on the DVD player and the TV.
The TV screen said `enter disc` and the DVD screen said `no disc`

I selected DVD on the remote and typed the number 0539 and pressed the Magic button.
The onscreen display did not change.
Using the DVD`s remote I typed 222222005255 and then pressed the play buton on the DVD`s remote. The onsceen display still said No Disc. I turned the power off, waited 10 seconds then put the power back on.
When I put a disc in nothing had changed. Have I misunderstood the instructions?
Many thanks for your prompt reply
Paul.

in your one 4 all six if the model is a urc-4300 you just enter 539 not 0539 but it sounds as if you didnt set up the remote correctly you need to set the one-for-all like this.

press dvd then the magic button till if flashes twice then enter 0539 press magic till it flashes once then enter 085 then your display should show you ------------ just enter the 12 digits then press play till it says no disk,
switch off 10 sec switch on. Should now be OK

yup.....YOU HAVE TO SET UP THE REMOTE TO CONTROL YOUR DVD...using 0539......

but....do you have trouble reading?....coz you missed out a whole section of the code......

YOU HAVE TO ENTER MAGIC 085 to access the dashes......(jesus...did IQ levels drop while i was away!)......

Hi Allan,

As you seem to be an expert with the Philips DVD hack I would like to ask you a quick question if I may ? I have just posted a question in the main Forum but I hope this will come directly to you, I have brought a Philips701 DVD but I don`t have an all4-one remote. After reading Fiona`s e-mail I saw that she had tried to use the remote supplied with the DVD by entering/pressing play followed by 159 will this work to acess the "----" so I can put the code in and convert to both regions.

Please advise, many thanks for any information provided.
