can you unlock the JVC XV-C5SL??

Hey guys,
I`ve just bought a JVC XV-C5SL from ebay, only to find out that it won`t play Region 1 disks, even though the seller advertised it as PAL/NTSC compatible which threw me of! anyway, can this be remote hacked? or does it have to be chipped? thought i was having a nice little multi region DVD player, instead i got a box thats got a dodgy LCD screen on that wont play my region ones:(

Thanks in advance for replying and helping me out hte best ya can guys, much appriciated.

Cheers in advance

RE: SAW Region 1 is it the uncut version?

Hey dude!
it does have the 6.1 DTS ES Digital Audio track, and just says Lions Gate Entertainment on the back. The case is very simular except i have only a quote from the new york observer under the "saw" title.

RE: copied dvd`s

I totally agree with you Geoff!
If the dvd/film companies sold the same product at the same price in each country, alot of the piracy would be cut out. Also, even though people buy copied DVD`s, the market is still booming and the film companies make millions and millions each year inspight of the piracy.Alot of people will buy a copy for a fiver or so, and then buy the actual DVD when its released offcially anyhow.

What it comes down too, is this; DVD/FILM companies need to stop being greedy and Release DVDs Everywhere, Same Time, Same Price.

If they did this, and possibly released dvds with a retail of £12.99 RRP im sure the rise in official dvd sales would increase dramastically and cover the slight loss they would make for not selling them at £19.99 RRP.

Thats what i think anyhoo.

RE: XBOX MODS!!! - Which one to get???

Hey dude,
the Xbit is also a very good chip, easily flashed with the bios and also has the switch to allow you play on XBox Live. Does everthing you listed and its a breeze todo, did mine (with the PogoPin version/Non-Solder) in under an hour.

www.watford.co.uk sell the chips too

RE: Driv3r PS2 or Xbox?

Hey guys!
Sorry to dissapoint all you Driv3r fans, but it sucks. It sucks more than a 2 bit hooker! I got eh game for the xbox, and completed it in a matter of hours. Completely crap AI, control on cars is far from fantastic and theres alot of graphical bugs in the game.

I`ve seen it runnin on the PS2 also, and the screens look incer on the PS2, but i still wouldnt buy it. Rent it or DL it (if you got broadband;) but dont buy it.
