Schneider 855 Macrovision! Possibility!

After mooching about the site, i`ve come across this posting by a certain dude called `wonder` and on the understanding that a GOODMANS GDVD125 is basically aSCHNEIDER 855 in disguise,and this is to de-macro a GDVD125, I have a request to one & all.
If at all possible, can somebody with both aSchneider 855 & a region 0 dvd try this out as I have a 855 but not a region 0 dvd (BTY as a matter of interest does this mean a multi-region dvd?)

i found this posting from someone else but i dont know if it works

Input a region 0 dvd into the dvd player (I use Shaolin Temple 3 a Jet Li film distributed by Eastern Heroes) Press play enter title and start film let the film run for a few seconds now press stop and eject the dvd, insert any other region dvd or vcd and hey presto no macrovision. It works every time for me!!!
You will have to repeat this procedure every time you switch your dvd player off.

P.S. If somebody finds that it does work can they make it known to all 855 owners.
Thanx

Yeah this trick only seems to work on VCD`s and Region 2 DVD`s without the "CP" logo on the back. None of my Region 1 DVD`s work using this. but hey, its better than nothing
