Japanese Studio Ghibli DVD Player - Region Hack?

Hi!

My Ghibli DVD Player arrived today from Japan. It`s Region 2 and but not play Region 2 Pal discs.

I saw the same player on eBay but Region Free. Able to play all regions and NTSC/PAL. I emailed the seller and asked if it was a firmware hack or done via the remote, he replied that a dealer in HK did it and it was not a hack (I`m guessing he meant wasnt a firmware hack)

Anyone able to shed some light on this?

Thanks!

Edit: One ebay listing says that the player is manufactured by Funai

RE: sanyo 7201 , does it work????

Killed my machine.

I came here looking to see if my Sanyo could be made region free. Saw these posts and thought great, this will work.

When I updated (exactly as instructed) the screen went red. Ok, no problem. Came back in the room about 20 seconds later, tv was blank, switched to standbye? no, switched to DEAD. no lights, no LED, no standbye. The machine will not function what so ever. Completely usless now. Im gutted.

Others please beware
