Pioneer 444 hackable ?

Bowf (Elite) posted this on Monday, 26th August 2002, 15:10

I remember an old thread saying some versions of the 444 might be hackable.
I have a few questions...
1/ Can anyone remind me of the possible hack ?
2/ Is there a certain serial number or something that I should look for to determine if my machine is a hackable version ?
3/ Does the hack have to be changed from region to region every time you play a disc or will it be automatic ?
I know d******* can `fix` it, but if I had £50 I wouldn`t be asking any of the above...
Cheers

if you dont have £50 then you wont be watching other regions unless you find a local outlet to do it for £25-£30

I also have the DV 444, it seems almost impossible to hack! (unless u want to pay £50!)

The possible hack is, as follows:

1 Turn on your dvd player without a disk
2 Press `setup`
3 Press `right arrow` until `general` is selected
4 Press `down arrow` once
5 Press `display`
6 Press `condition memory`
7 Press `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5` or `6`, for the region
8 Press `setup`

This dosent work on my machine, let me know if you find anything else!
