Help Needed - Sony DVP S3000

Grumpy Old Git (Competent) posted this on Wednesday, 1st November 2000, 22:06

Guys, great forum and info - My probs? - first can the above machine be hacked? or alternatively is their a chip mod for this machine as i bought it on a trip to Asia some time back and the little inscrutible who sold it to me assured me it was modded for multi region... needless to say it only plays the dvd`s i bought out their.. Any pointers would be welcome... If all fails I would buy a new machine - but then which one... I see the infamous Hitachi 505 (suffixed with a p) in Dixons for £300 plus.... or are any of the cheaper models as good?

TV: Phillips 32 widescreen
Vid: Panasonic stereo
Amp: Kenwood Dolby pro
Spks: Tannoy main and centre, Mission rears

Many thx for any help related with the above

thx for the reply amir - as you say it is an old machine but then i have had it for a couple of years and was mighty impressed by the picture quality and the spiffy on screen menu`s... should have bought its big brother, that had dip switches to change regions..... stupid question but where is your 1st bookmark?
