Ok i found a hack on the net at vcdhelp for the pioneer dv 444, however i cant test this hack because i dont have any region 1 discs.
If there are any other Pioneer DV 444 owners that can test this hack please let me know so i can start buying region 1 discs!
Here is the Hack:-
1 Turn on your DVD player without a disc 2 Press "setup" 3 Press "right Arrow" until "general" is selected 4 Press "down arow" once 5 Press "display" 6 Press "condition Memory" 7 Press "1", "2", "3", "4", "5" or "6" for the Region 9 Press "setup"
After this the unit is ready to play the selected region

Thats the instructions for manually changing the regions on A PRE-MODIFIED PLAYER.
There is no remote hack.
Vcdhelp seems to be full of these `I haven`t tested it but it should work` hacks..
