Page 1 of Need multi-region hack for JVC XV-N44SL

Just bought a raft of DVDs for region 2 and found out that my "play anything" multi-system DVD player is locked into region 1. >:( Bummer! Has anyone successfully hacked one of these devices to play region 2 discs? :¦
An old guy would be most appreciative, otherwise I`ve got to do battle with the forces of evil (return clerk at a Spanish department store) to try to get my Euos back. :(

I`m a fan of and believer in things that you can thump to make them work (Lucas electrics in my old TR and the carb on my `68 Camaro); this electronic stuff just baffles the begeezus out of me! :/

If you can trash one of those JVC XV-N44SL players, you can try these information for XV-"N33SL" instead of "N44SL" ;

There are several negative comments in that link, but your trial report will be appreciated by all members on this forum... Good luck.

Sorry but the only way to can mod this or similar JVCs is via a special external uploader via the players compulink socket. There is no other way whatsoever to do it.....
