If you are shown a screen stating that there has been a Region Error when you try to load your DVD disc, this means that the disc you are attempting to play contains a Region Code which is different to that of your DVD player (also meaning that your DVD player is not Multi-Region compatible) and so the disc will not run on this machine. You should never see this error when playing Region 0 discs.

This usually means that Stage was unable to execute the Player server because it's not in your PATH. You must have the path to the server binary player (e.g., $HOME/player-1.3/bin) in your PATH.

The advanced settings allow you to mess around and make quite some noise. However.. most I don't understand what most options mean so I suggest if you're interested you'll ask in the bbMPEG usergroup. Of course DC precision, motion search vectors and such things are obvious candidates to change.

By renouncing a player, a team gives up its right until the following June 30 to use the Larry Bird, Early Bird, or Non-Bird exceptions (see question number 19) to re-sign that player. A renounced player no longer counts toward team salary, so teams use renouncement to gain additional cap room.

All modern DVD players will play our DVD's. With the price of DVD players going down to below $50, this is not really a major issue.

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.

Hacks can usually be found on the internet or newsgroups. DVD magazines are also a good source for hacks.

It's not likely. DVD circuitry is completely different, the pickup laser is a different wavelength, the tracking control is more precise, etc. No hardware upgrades have been announced, and in any case they would probably be more expensive than buying a DVD player to put next to the laserdisc player.
