Page 1 of Philips 950 Sound options lost?

I tried the region hack that i found on this site to make the player region 1. That worked fine, but when i began to watch the movie i discovered that the 5.1 analog output option was gone and also the speaker test options. Is the hack intended for a player without dolby digital decoder or?

if anyone has the sollution to this problem or knows another way to make it codefree i would be wery thankful.

Hmm, Try 008000 128 156, if that doesnt work try 005000 128 156. Dont forget to keep track of how many changes youve made, these will lock up after 25.

I´ll try that

Thanx for the rapid response! :)

He gets paid to respond quickly, that and he pretends to do work at home all day whilst he idles in irc and chats away

I hope you don`t mind me contacting you but as you own the same model DVD as I do I thought I would give it a try.

I swapped the region code on my 950 using the sequence on the remote:
Play 159 004001 000 140. Everything worked fine I was able to watch a region 1 dvd, however when I came to revert back I follwed the instructions ie Play 159 005000128 156 and everything has locked up. I cannot even turn the dvd on via the remote or anything. Have I knackered the machine or is there some hope?

same was for me...

I managed to get it back to control with a lot of atempts:
if you power on player without disk it locks after trying to find disk...It only plays CD`s and if you lucky to have any - region 0 DVD`s...
seems that you need to find right time to enter code, not very fast, just try until you find right timing... Then enter code 159 004001 000 140 again.
