Page 1 of Samsung SV-DVD3E

I want to buy a DVD Player/VHS recorder combi. The Samsung
SV-DVD3E seems to have a good spec. However, it is region 2 only and ideally I would like a multi region player. Does anyone know how to hack this model please?

Thanks

Jim

To be honest, I dont think anyone`s found a hack for this machine "Yet"



Sorry

There is a hack for the SV-DVD1E. I assume that the 3E must be able to be hacked as it`s only an update of the DVD1E and most other Samsungs can be hacked. I`ve got a 511 and a DVD1E and both hacked no problem.

I have a hack which should work. I have a samsung V7000 (Australia) which is same as the SV-DVD3E (and also V2000 from USA).

Try this hack, it works for me.


1. The player should be powered on, the tray closed without any disc inside, the logo "DVD Video Samsung" visble on screen and the message No Disc must have already appeared.
2. Press the Subtitle key on the remote - nothing should appear.
3. Using the remote control, key in the code for your original rgeion (see hacks above):
Region 1 - 2, 9, 3, 3, 4
Region 2 - 3, 8, 7, 6, 7
Region 3 - 5, 6, 7, 3, 2
Region 4 - 7, 6, 8, 8, 4
Region 5 - 5, 3, 8, 1, 4
Region 6 - 2, 4, 4, 6, 2

4. A number should appear - this is the player`s region number that was last programmed.
5. Press the number of the region you require, or 9 for region-free.
6. Open the player`s tray using the front panel.
7. Press Standby on the remote control.
