I started here. Just wondering if anyone knows how or has hacked a PS3 for Multi-Region DVD and BluRay movies.

Ok. So I jumpted the gun a little bit. Apparently, it's ready already.

In case anyone is curious. I will be testing this afternoon and hope to post results.

You need:


- FTP Client for PS3 (z.B. FTPServer 1.1 v. blackb0x)

- FTP Client for PC (z.B. Filezilla, UltraFXP)

- xRegistry Editor V.0.75




Step by Step:


- activate FTPServer on PS3

- Start FTP Client on

- in FTP Client browse to PS3 nach /dev_flash2/etc/xRegistry.sys

- copy the xRegistry.sys to PC (make a Backup !!!)

- start xRegistry Editor & open xRegistry.sys File

- search for Entry /setting/bddvd/dvdRegionCode

- change Value 00000000 to 00000002 (asian to european)
(last Digits: 0=asian, 1=americian, 2=european)

- search for Entry /setting/bddvd/bdRegionCode

- change Value 00000000 to 00000002 (asian to european)
(last Digits: 0=asian, 1=americian, 2=european)

- push Save Button to save

- copy or overwrite xRegistry.sys with FTP Client back to /dev_flash2/etc/xRegistry.sys

- reboot PS3

The previous posts refer to PS3 version 3.55. This requirement is 3.73. Back to the interwebs with me.
