i currently use powerdvd 3, but everytime i put in a dvd of a different region, it says something about locking my dvd player to that region. is there anyway around this such as a region hack or does anyone know of another software i could use. thanks Stu

It only works if your DVD drive has the right kind of firmware. This means essentially whether the region selection is made by software - in which case DVD genie will work fine.
If the region is set in the firmware DVD genie won`t help. You`ll need to look into updating your drives firmware with a hacked version which can kill it if you get it wrong!
