I have just done the region mod on a DTH 5000. But in the previous post you say in step 10 that the Macrovision can also be disabled here.
HOW ?
All I saw was the figure 02 which changed to 09 at step 7.
There is no other menu .
Or does changing ther unit to Region free also switch off the Macrovision
