Many people seem to think that Nintendo Wii games are also region-coded, but in fact it's only PAL v NTSC at play and I've happily imported Wii games from the UK and played them on my Australian-bought Wii (although it still made me nervous the first time). I sent pioneer Australia an email explaining that since their last upgrade I am unable to play discs from other regions, they replied that they no longer handle this type of enquiry in Australia as it had been decided in Japan to source these enquiries and warranty work to an outside firm and they gave me the contact email address, I sent this firm an email and they replied that should I bring or send the player to them in Melbourne they would revert it to allow region free playing of dvd's, I replied that it wasnt dvd's that I wanted fixed but blu rays to which they replied that blu ray regions were locked in the factory in Japan before shipping and once set can not be changed, which means that I must have been confused in saying that my player originally was able to play blu rays and on thinking about it they may be correct and I may have been thinking about my Samsung player.The use of PAL and NTSC is not actually region-coding, although it can have the same effect if your old television doesn't support NTSC.

I hardly ever use my BD player these days preferring to copy any new discs I get to my network so I only have the main movie without all the rubbish that precedes it. I would check the crowd in Melbourne that do re-chipping then it's permanent. If you know the firmware version before updating you might be able to find it on a web site.

Quite often they update in such a way you can't go back. in order to get past the sony protection, just use dvdfab to rip to your hard drive then transfer to either disc

I agree with you in regards to ripping these blu rays from overseas and what I do is rip to a hard drive using imagburn then play them back through a WD medis player, but with the new protection being put in by Sony it is becoming difficult to rip these discs to a hard drive.

Thanks, I think I have the previous update stored somewhere, however I will send pioneer an email asking if it is safe to install the prev update and if by doing this will it remove the update that cancelled out the region free format.Īs to having a region free chip installed in Australia I have been in touch with one guy in Melbourne and one in Brisbane but they are not interested in modifying your own player and all they want is to sell you one of their own modified players and they charge like wounded buffalos, whith the price they want it is cheaper to source one from Amazon, I am currently looking at one they sell called an ivid which has excellent reviews and I can get that landed here for around $220 AU or the local kogan model is available online for under $100 but I cant find out if they are any good.
