Changing the Region Code Setting on MAX Servers
MAX-HT Servers and the MDL200 Multi-Disc Loader feature internal DVD-ROM drives. The region
code setting for the internal DVD-ROM must match the region code of the DVD disc(s) you are
attempting to load.
If the region code setting on the DVD-ROM does not match that of the DVD disc that is inserted into the
drive, the disc will not be recognized.
The region code setting for the MAX Server’s DVD-ROM can be changed via the Change Region
option in MAX Admin Menu (accessible via the S erver Configuration option in WinMAX):
The number of resets still available is indicated at the top of the Change Region page (see FIG. 36).
In the event that you expect to load large numbers of DVDs with different region codes, you should
group the DVDs together by region to minimize the number of times you’ll have to change the region
code setting (keeping in mind that it can only be changed a maximum of five times).
Also, insure that the last region code setting made matches the region in which the MAX will be
installed.
FIG. 36 MAX Admin Menu - Change Region
The number of region code setting resets still available
is indicated here (Max resets = 5).
You can change the region code setting on your MAX Server’s DVD-ROM drive up to
five times, and no more. The region code setting is locked down in the DVD-ROM
drive the fifth time it is set, permanently setting to that last region code setting. At that
point there is no way to change the region code setting again.
