Disable Macro?

Is there a secret menu or anything on the Bush DVD 2009 that will allow disabling of the macro?

I have my player linked through a lot of cables and video`s for output to other TV`s through-out the house, but with the macro, obviously I can`t view them....

I do NOT want to copy from DVD`s, I just want to be able to watch them where I want - without the expense of having a DVD in every room!

Thanks

RE: Tosh SD-2109

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, could you tell me how much this would cost etc, and how long the general turn-around is for this procedure?

Also, this ain`t my machine, its a friend in Ireland.

Thanks in advance.

Tosh SD-2109

Hi,

Thanks in advance.

Macro?

Anyone know of a `remote` hack to disable Macro on the Bush DVD 2009?

With it being Region 1 from the box, I was just wondering, ya know?

Thanks in advance.

RE: VHS to DVD

I dont know any companies, but to do the transfer, as a one off, is gonna cost you heaps.... it ain`t worth thinking about yet.

Maybe the new recordable DVD`s will be able to accept other sources of input, then maybe you can do it yourself, its just a matter of waiting for them to be released, which should be over the next few months or so.

Good Luck anyway.

RE: LG2330p - If no hack - where do I get it chipped?

Well, buy a DVD mag from your newsagents, there are loads of companies who specialise in this.

www.techtronics.com, I got my original LG done there, and for £60 the `chip` also removed the macrovision and made it vhs friendly!

RE: Bush DVD 2009 - Your advice please !

Your quite right, this player is Region Free from the box, although some people have mentioned that certain movies from certain companies wont work. ie PAramount, Fox etc.

I have had NO problems so far with ANY disc, and yeah, you simply just stick em in and play.

RE: Can`t get the Hack to Work!

Have you tried your connections at all?

I have a similar problems at times, as I have Scart, S-VHS and RGB connections from my TV coming from all sorts, ie, playstation, dvd, video etc, and at times I get the same thing.

I solved it by removing a few of the connections when not needed.

RE: lg 2300e and grundig gdv 211 gb

The LG can not be hacked via the remote.
You`ll have to have it chipped.

As for the Grundig, I don`t know sorry - have you tried the hack section on these pages?

Bush DVD-2009

Hey, does anyone know if there is a macrovision disabler option for this player?

I know its Region Free from the box, so I`m hoping there maybe a secret menu or remote hack for this option?

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

RE: picture squashed playing region 1 discs

I`m afraid its a new TV.....

Even though your DVD will output PAL and NTSC, as you mentioned above, your TV can`t decode the signal, hence the long picture.....

So get yourself a lovely new Widescreen TV, most (if not all) new TV`s are now PAL/NTSC ready - and digital to boot ;o)

Mike

RE: picture squashed playing region 1 discs

Is the Tosh a Widescreen, and fairly recent? If not, it may not be NTSC compatible, or your DVD player may need to be set manually for 16:9 TV`s.

Also, does this happen with ALL R1`s? It could be the aspect ratio of that film that is making them all seem squished?

RE: Time Computer DVD ROM

Time (if a fairly new PC) will include a Hitachi GDR-5000 (8x)

I have the ROM Revision if that helps, and also DVD Genie and PowerDVD with the hack, so you can do like me, and watch any region ;)

RE: HELP!!! CAN YOU PLAY VCD`S ON A MATSUI DVD PLAYER???

Unfortunately, your in the same boat as me, I have a BUSH DVD 2009, and I can`t play VCD`s (copied ones anyway) as the laser can`t read cd-r`s (ie. pc burned discs) as the laser is not capable of it.

The only way you`ll get to see VCD`s if you get the ORIGINAL Silver disc`s, which are mainly bought from Japan.

Hope it helps.

RE: Remote Hack for LG DVD2330p

It is true that the code above is ONLY for modified machines from Liverpool`s Richer Sounds.

As I have the LG and it DOES NOT work.......

Anyway, I sold it now and bought a Region Free from the box BUSH DVD 2009 lol.

Mike

RE: Bush DVD 2009

I`d agree with that.

My player has been playing R1`s and R2`s for weeks now, not a problem.

Just a shame it won`t play my VCD`s.

Mike

RE: Bush DVD 2009

BUSH DVD 2009 is Region Code Free from the box.

This machine will not play Blue/Green VCD`s, only the original Silver ones.

Hope this all helps you.

RE: Remote Hack for LG DVD-2330P - Does it work ?

You say this HACK came straight from LG?

Well, thats a bit weird, as they won`t give that info out... they told me its illegal.

So I`m thinking RIcher (if it is) have these players modified, and this code is to change regions on the new chip....

Damn LG!!

I WANT A HACK!

Mike

RE: Remote Hack for LG DVD-2330P - Does it work ?

Well, that procedure didn`t work for me ANYWAY I tried it.

Is this hack due to the modification maybe?

I can`t gve my player back lol, as I got it on HP - so I`m in desperate need of a remote hack..

ARRGHHH!!

Looks like I`m NEVER gonna get it hacked, and I can`t afford the £60-80 for a hardware mod either :(

Philips DVD-711

Hi,

Does anyone know of the REAL hack for this machine?

Also, does anyone know if there is actually 25 maximum changes, as I have been told it could be anything from 5 upto 25.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

Mike

RE: Remote Hack for LG DVD-2330P - Does it work ?

Unfortunately, this had NO effect what-so-ever on my player.

Nothing changed, no screen changes, no colour flashes, nothing.

Can I ask what is the URL of the site where you got this hack?

I have been after a hack for this player for 4 months now.

Thanks.

Mike

RE: Remote Hack for LG DVD-2330P - Does it work ?

I have this player - I`ll check it tonight, and get back to you tomorrow..

RE: I NEED A HACK FOR MY PC

RE: opps

RE: WHICH PLAYER ? and i need one that uses a remote t make it multiregion

I just bought my sister, the Bush DVD-2009, and that was region hacked from the box - ie. it played R1 titles without needing a hack.

Plus, it was only £179 from Argos :)

RE: help macro philips 711

Yeah I agree.

Techtronics are the best I found, my Philips 711 is now Region and Macro Free :)

RE: Can I make my Toshiba SD - M1202 (PC DVD) Multi Region?

Hi,

You need DVD Genie, sorry I don`t have a URL where you can get it, but you`ll easily find it on any decent DVD site, you may well find a link to it on these pages.

Failing this, E-Mail me @ 99eliX[at]moc.liamtoH, and I`ll send it you over.

Mike

RE: I NEED A HACK FOR MY PC
