You are trying to play a DVD with a region that doesn't match the region you originally set with your DVD software. Either change this setting or try a DVD with a different region.

Unless otherwise stated in the item description, all of our DVD's are encoded for play in at least Region 1 (sometimes 2 & 4 also), which is the North American DVD region. We do have a few Japanese import DVD's that are encoded for Region 2, which is Japan and Europe. Also, all of our DVD's are NTSC video format, as opposed to PAL format commonly used in Europe. If you are in the US, all of our DVD's will work just fine in your DVD player except for those few imports that are region 2.

You should never see this error when playing Region 0 discs.

You can turn your region 2 only DVD player into a multi-region player by adding a micro-chip, or with some players, can be hacked to become multi-region by pressing a combination of keys on the remote control.
