Page 1 of MIB II effect on your player, plays region 2 disk different on two machines

posted this here as a hardware issue

in the menu of men in black II there is a training video accessed by putting the curser on the worm reading the paper

I have tried this with two players and the results are different,

on a digital i auto region player the celebs are Australian and this can not be changed, but on a region 2 machine the celebs are from English TV . If you own a copy of MIB II try the training video and see what the results are or if any body has a multi region player you can manually set
try it on different regions i.e. region 2 and region 4

Please post some results i am interested to see what they are, as the explanation from the vender of the multi region machine i own did not sound convincing

Attack of the Clones R2 does similar as well.
If you play it on an R2 only machine, you get one type of intro and Menu presentation.
If you play it on a multiregion machine you get a completely different intro and menu presentation.
Strange.....
I have absolutely no explanation for it...sorry.

this means that the MIB II region 2 disk has actualy got region 4 information on it, but why does the multi region player pick out the region 4 info first

is it because my player was intended for sale in region 4 as multi region[ as i know the brand is sold in that part of the world but know one has heard of them here MIZUDA, aka DIGITAL I, ARIANET P&B]

or do all multi region players pick out region 4 info first.

or do region 2 coverted to multi region pick out info for region 2 first

in danger of losing the plot here.
