Hi,
I bought an Evesham laptop a few weeks ago, after first asking in their Bristol showroom whether or not the DVD player could be made to play any region of DVD. I was told it could, simply by d/loading DVD Genie from the web.
In fact tho, it can't - & Evesham refuse to do anything about it, as multi-region ability is not something they advertise in their literature, & they don't appear to believe I was told the DVD player could be made to work as multi-region. I did n't get it in writing, before I ordered, but that was what I was told.
Anyway, they've not heard the last from me on the issue of their customer support, I'm posting here to see if anyone knows how it might, after all, be possible to make the DVD RAM multi-region?
The DVD is a Matshita DVD-RAM UJ-845S.
I've tried DVD Region Free+CSS (which has replaced DVD Genie), plus AnyDVD, plus DVD43, plus MasterDVD Region Free - none of them work. I've tried the RPC-1 site - there's no firmware fix for the Matshita UJ845.
Any suggestions welcome. My current plan is stiff letter of complaint to Evesham, possible action via trading standards, & to buy & install myself a replacement DVD Ram drive, after first checking specifically that it can be made multi-region.
Iam.
