I bought it specifically for UK DVDs and they play just fine, as well as the US DVDs. Anywhere else, I have no idea.

No. The following is from the manual:"BD-Video: This player plays BD-Video with marks containing the region code A.DVD-Video: This player plays DVD-Video with marks containing the region code 1 and ALL."

Mine will play most dvd's. I've noticed that it will not play foreign made dvd's regardless of whether they are region 1 or region 0.

Region Free means you can play DVDs in different languages from different countries, watch and enjoy!

It definitely plays Region 2 also, but isn't a 'smart' DVD player to channel Instant videos and Netflix. Our TV does that but we also use a Roku for those services.

We played all movies that were purchased from a store in the US and they worked fine. :) Anything from Disney to star wars, to comedy, etc. Never had any issues with it not reading them.

the dvd only read region #1 DVD discs (USA DVD), but dont worry, you just need to recode videos and movies into a flash device or HD. More here:

answer unknown. My son has the player and uses DVD-r if that helps any. What are region 1 and region 2 dvd's?

the media format says NTSC and PAL so I assume yes but the manual says that the region code is printed on the bottom of the DVD player and will only play discs from that region. It says Region 1. -__-

As I understand it if you are in the U.S. and update this products firmware you will not be able to play other regions dvd's

dragger, Samsung Blu-Ray players sold in the United States will support DVD Region 1/Open/All. They will also support Blu-Ray "Region A". The limits are placed by the copyright owner, based on the number of regions that copyright holder wishes the content to be played in. If the copyright owner wants DVD Regions 1, 2 and 5 to be allowed, but not 3, 4 or others, they can add that limitation - let's refer to them as "flags" - onto the disc. The player will check for the "right flags", and if the correct region is allowed, the player will play the content. If the wrong flag says, "no, you can't show this content in this region", the player will reject the content. DVDs may use one code (a single region), a combination of codes (multi-region), every code (which includes all regions) or no codes (region free). Does that help explain how region codes manage content? If not, let us know and we'll be happy to explain. --Mr. S

Yes, I bought it to play a DVD collection from France. It works fine with all regions.

It should. I bought this because it plays multi-regional DVDs. I don't know where my 'foreign' DVDs came from. They do play fine. You could call Orei. I think they're in Brooklyn, NY.

You do not. However, there are several DVDs made for the US that this player will not play (seemed like about 30%-40% the movies I rented/owned would not play.
