Hi All.

Im wanting to send a Zone 4 Dvd from New Zealand - to a friend in the US. Are they able to watch the DVD on a dvdplayer - if it is a multi regional player? Are they able to watch the DVD on their computer? Or ... if neither of those are going to work ... if I copied the DVD and sent that version for him to play on his Computer - would THAT work?

Thanks if you were able to understand that, and thanks again if you have any input!

Cheers

If the player is a multi-region or what they call region-free it will be no problem.

A computer DVD drive can be hacked to be region free.

If you know the model number of the DVD player, and do a search online, you can generally find a region free code that you input using the remote.
