RE: SD-231ESB1

the solution to your problem has nothing to do with the region code.
First make sure that you connect the DVD to the TV using a full wired scart 2 scart. (if you have more than one scart on the TV use AV1 only)
From the Toshiba remote press "setup`
In the menu choose the video out option and set it to RGB
Now you should have colour on all discs.

RE: Toshiba SD24 Combo

Here is the Toshiba hack for the SD-43HK... try it and let us know!

TOSHIBA SD-43HK HOME CINEMA MULTIREGION HACK

1. TURN ON THE DVD PLAYER WITHOUT ANY DISC
2. PRESS ENTER
3. PRESS 8-4-2-6-9
4. PRESS ENTER
5. PLAYER WILL TURN ITSELF OFF....IF NOT, TURN OFF MANUALLY
6. TURN PLAYER ON

For the CD I would not mess around with these a it could make your machine inoperable!

RE: Toshiba SD24 Combo

DVD players are never multiregion from the factory but need to be modified (Hacked). So yours is not multiregion. However I do not have a hack for your player. Usually Toshibas use an upgrade CD but they have 1 model (SD43HK) which is remote hackable.

Toshiba SD240

Hello

Does anybody know how I can upgrade my region 2 Toshiba SD240 to multiregion? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you...

RE: My experience with different MOD companies in the UK - Best & Worst

Yep - Steve of www.dvdchips.co.uk is right. In fact I have written him an e-mail and he promptly replied even though I have never purchased from his company. Thats what I call good service. So whoever needs a DVD upgrade should chose companies like dvdchips because if you need service you get it promptly.

RE: My experience with different MOD companies in the UK - Best & Worst

Hello Steve
It is true that I have never bought from your company. Maybe in the future I will and you will be given a chance to prove yourself. I fully agree with you on the suppliers that you mentioned as I have dealed with most of them. Also I am not suprised about your comments about Gary (Gazza) of channeltechnology. I wasted lots of time and long distance telephone bills without never getting any service from him.

So the lesson is that you should always buy from reputable companies and steer clear from rip-offs like channeltechnology.

RE: My experience with different MOD companies in the UK - Best & Worst

OK : About 3 weeks ago I ordered a MOD kit from www.channeltechnology.com and it was never sent. I phoned them almost every day (long distance from Malta) and they never gave me an explanation. I also e-mailed them several times but still got no answer or even an acknowledgment. Then the day before yesterday I came accross www.mailuk.co.uk and e-mailed them, ordered, paid, and today I have what I ordered. So anyone could see the big difference in service. Having said that I also received good service from most other suppliers (I buy MODs regurarly) most notably from www.multiregionmagic.co.uk but I still feel that www.mailuk.co.uk have the fastest & best service.

My experience with different MOD companies in the UK - Best & Worst

Hello

I have been purchasing mail order DVD mod sollutions from different UK suppliers for quite a while and now I could say who is the best and who is the worst.

So the title for the BEST service goes to Mailuk.com (Steve Middleton)

The title for the WORST service goes to channeltechnology of Wales (Gazza).
