Region Coding Note
Region coding is a requirement by the DVD specification that prevents DVD content from being played in
areas of the world for which it was not intended. This allows films to be released on DVD in one area, while
still playing in cinemas in others. The region code on DVD discs you purchase should correspond to the
region code of your DVD drive. For European countries this code is
2 .
If you purchase a DVD disc from any other region, it will not function on your system . Discs coded for
other regions are found in the
“
import
”
section of some shops that sell DVD discs, or abroad. The region code
should be shown on the back of the DVD case. It is represented by a small map of the world, with a number
super-imposed over the top; this number is the region code. If you cannot find this, ask a sales assistant.
