No, I`ve not heard of it. Must say some punctuation would have been helpful - took me 3 reads to work out what you`re trying to say....

Strange problem - might be worth saying how you get into the secret menu, as I`ll bet the firmware used on this player is the same as another one - that might help identify any other players that are the same. Almost sounds like it`s had some sort of full reset.

This player is what the YELO 800 is based on ,the UK importer for the smart no longer is around I will look around to see if I still have all the info on this machine and will post later.

Open the disc tray, press 0, 7, 7, select, and a menu should appear.

Change `Country Code` from 13 to

0-region 0
1-region 1
2-region 2

et cetera.
