Help needed.Macro hack for Samsung 511.

Hi ,
I have modified my Samsung hack and converted my player into a multi-region player --> See thread:

www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?Forum=176&Thread=13423

But the macrovision is still working.

I allready tried following to disable the macro:

Rehack the player in the method used originally,
Insert a REGION 1 disc when you open the tray during the hack, and leave it in when you close it.
Continue to the end of the hack.

Unfotunatly it doesn´t worked.

Has anybody some ideas ???

Thanks

RE: Modified Samsung 511 hack, for all those who tried the regular 38767 hack...

Sorry, I just can say that it worked very well on my player.
What happens after your cold start ?

RE: Modified Samsung 511 hack, for all those who tried the regular 38767 hack...

Hi,you are right the firs three will select german language.
But once hacked, you can change the language as you like after the cold start.There is no need for entering the 3,8,7,6,7 twice after the first hack.
This seems to be permanent, but you can still change the R-codes as you like with te regular hack.

Good luck !!!

Trust me I had the same problems like you, and it worked.
Just keep trying.

RE: How do I undo samsung 709 hack ?

Hi,
just cold start the player(press stop & play button on the player at one time).
This should restore your player in it´s original state.

Good luck.

RE: Please help with Region Hack for Samsung Max-945D..

Hi, try this modified 709 hack.

For all who tried the regular Thomson hack on their player(with all diffrent Regioncodes) and it doesnt work.(´No 02 appears on the screen)
--> like FM.

Before I found this hack, the numbers were visible on the screen when I pressed them after the Repeat button.

This hack will make them disappear and 02 will appear.and you can convert your player in a multi-region player.

Try this:
1. No disk in the tray

2.Cold start the Player (hold down play and stop on the Player for three seconds).

3.When the language menue appears press 3,8,7,6,7 on the remote in sequence ( I´m not really sure if I pressed it fast in a row or if I waited for each number to appear. Try it first in a fast way, if it doesn´t work try it slow.).

This seems to unlock somethig.

4. The DVD screen will appear.Press now Repeat,3,8,7,6,7 (the numbers should not appear on the screen anymore. If they do cold start and try it again).
The number 02 will appear on the screen for a short time.
Now press the button for the region you require(1=R1 etc.) or press 9 for an auto select mode.

5. Press open/close on the Player to open the disk tray.

6. Press Standby(DVD Power) on the players remote to close the tray.
Next time you turn the player on , you will have a multi-region player (or a player set to the region you specified).
If it doesn´t work close the lid after opening it, and press Standby afterwards.
This worked perfectly fine on my player. And I had the same problems like FM(described in earlier threads) before.
If anybody knows how I can check this, please tell me.

To disenable the macro try following:

Rehack the player in the method used originally,
Insert a REGION 1 disc when you open the tray during the hack, and leave it in when you close it.
Continue to the end of the hack.

To see if your macro is disabled loop your DVD over a VCR.

Good Luck Please tell me what happened :-)
