I`m sorry I don`t - but I have a Grundig 220 & was wondering which hack you were using? I have tried the Proline one and I get no luck, I`m desperate to get it to play region 1 disks! Does anyone know anything about Grundig!?!

I am using the 0123 one which works, But not sure if its the same for the 220. Sorry cant help

Try setting your tvsystem to pal, this should do the trick because it sounds like you tv doesn`t accept ntsc signals.

Region 1 DVD`s are coded for NTSC colour system, I assume you are using a PAL or SECAM Television/Monitor. There are multi standard TV`s available in Europe, however, the simple solution is to, set the DVD and Television to RGB and use a 21 pin SCART lead to interconnect them. If your TV has no RGB facility, then you will not be able to have colour. Get back to me if you have an other problems. Regards Andrew

Thank u but not sure how to change to rgb when i stareted playing region 1 it workd then just suddenly went to b/w will see about getting that scart and will try again.

I to am using the hack for multi region and works no problem, plays reg 1&2 fine..Can anybody tell me if this dvd can play CD-R `s if so how , if not why?? Also what is the difference between VCD`S & CD-R`S...
