As for DVD-ROM drives, one kind of the DVD-Video Playback system,
there are 2 types:
RPC Phase 1 (as RPC1) : RPC1 drives do not have built-in hardware
support for region management. DVD-ROM drives of this kind don’t
play a part in controlling the playback region. It solely depends on the
decoder.
RPC Phase 2 (as RPC2) : RPC2 drives maintain the region change
count information in hardware, and in general, the region of such drives
can be changed up to 5 times by the end users under some software
decoder (e.g. PowerDVD).

Egypt)

About This Combo Drive
This Combo Drive is a RPC2 drive and according to DVD-Forum, PC
chip must be designed into DVD-ROM drives to record how many times
a user has changed the region code. Once the limit of 5 changes is
reached, the drive won't allow you to change the region code any more.
It means the code will be locked and only those DVD titles of the same
region code could be played afterwards, so set the code carefully.
