Page 1 of Goodmans 3500PK

Recently bought a Goodmans DVD surround system for £200 from Comet inc speakers etc. Am very impressed. Plays DVD, VCD, SVCD, MP£, CD but not multi region yet.

Does anyone know the hack? I think it is based on an Aiwa system

Much thanks

Mark

Hi, I also bought the Goodmans system and would like to ask if it plays all VCD`S has I don`t think it mentions them in the manual.
Also I can play some CD-Rs (music) some Maxell with blue bottoms and Samsung with blue bottoms.At first I thought it must be the blue that was the reason but I have other makes with blue that don`t work.
I would be interested to hear what works on yours.

Hi Mark,

I have also recently purchased the Goodmans 3500,- and agree, it`s great!

The only problem is that, as you say, it`s not multi-region, and like you I would appreciate the hack, if known. Any chance you could pass it on when you find it.

Is there a chance that it won`t be hackable?

Very grateful for any information.

Because all the other Goodmans DVDs seem to be hackable and because it is rebranded by Currys/Dixons as a grundig I imagine that it is a far east import and as such it is probably hackable. I HOPE !

I don`t know how they are discovered though.

I have a few ideas

1 You can type in numbers when the door is open which come up on screen

2 There is a system reset option. Perhaps this will enable the setting of the region. I`m to skared to try this though.
