FOUND!!! HACK FOR GOODMANS DVD3500PK
OK everyone, we found the multiregion hack BUT there is a problem with region 1, When you play region 1 movies they all play in black and white. I set my TV to NTSC/PAL auto detect and also tried just on NTSC but nothing! ANY SUGGESTION?
Oh by the way the reion hack is -
Leave the draw open, on your handset type 9187, this enters the region and macrovision setup, use the arrows and enter keys to pick your region.
Goodluck

No problem with B & W for me on R1 discs, my telly auto-detects NSTC fine and plays R1 discs in colour ok
Maybe your telly is not set quite right, or you`ve got a duff Scart lead?
Know anthing about recording from R1 discs?, I assume i`ve got to get a NTSC video, mines only recording in B & W
RE: FOUND!!! HACK FOR GOODMANS DVD3500PK
Canky, go back in to the region set page eg/ 9817 and set the macrovision to off, this should solve your problem, let me know please!
Good luck

Matt,
I`ve done that already, still can`t tape in colour from R1 discs.
I think it`s down to my VCR and not the DVD player though.
It`s not a problem, but it would be nice to do a copy now & again for my kids (if you can call a 21 year old a kid! )
I must say this is the first forum I`ve been in that`s being productive, just shows what can be done when folk work together.

Hey Jeff!
OK, I did some research for you and it turns out you DO need an NTSC capable VCR. Sorry I honestly thought you just had to disable the macrovision.
Hope this is of some help?

Matt,
Thought so, thanks for looking around.
I think my VCR can do NTSC, I can`t find the manual at the moment.
Best Wishes

I couldn`t play MP3 until I burnt a CD ( and closed the session) with no directory structure, i.e just put all the songs in the root.
I used Nero for burning the CD, and burnt to a cheapo 80 min CDR.
It does show up the quality of the left & right channel speakers though, I replaced mine with my standard hi-fi speakers- much better sound.

RE: FOUND!!! HACK FOR GOODMANS DVD3500PK
Well done to everyone in getting this hack. One question i have is that on the multi hack page it states that the code 9817 when opening the setup page for the region and macrovision setup ther is also a facility to change the PAL output to NTSC. I have a Beko Widescreen tv and im not sure if it will playback region 1 discs ok as it only seems to be a PAL TV. Anyone got an answer to my query? If the tv does not auto change to NTSC format i thought the facilty to change the output on the region setup would help but when inputting the code i did not see any PAL / NTSC setup window.
