Most players if not already multi-region can be unlocked using a series of keypresses on the remote and/or unit.Maurice

A quick google, led to a forum and some downloads wherin I found this info......
You have to download this file, and follow the instructions
http://sd220e.chez.tiscali.fr/
http://sd220e.chez.tiscali.fr/sd220e.rar
With this file you have to burn a CD and play it on the DVD player.
1. Download the rar file at the link above.
2. Unpack it using WinRAR.
3. Start Nero Burning ROM, click File, click Burn Image..., select the .cue file, click open, disable 'Determine maximum speed' and 'Simulation', at write method select Disc-at-once (this is very important), click write.
4. Push setup on the SD220e remote control, select under picture:
PAL/Auto: Auto. Push setup again.
5. Open your SD220e disc tray and insert the CD.
6. Close the disc tray.
7. The disc will be read and recognised as a VCD, you'll see the image on your television flash and after a short while you will not see any image at all. Wait about 10 seconds and take out the CD.
8. Your player is now region free.
Unfortunalty the link at the start of the instructions appears to be dead, perhaps a search for the file using p2p would be successful??Last edited by Morr; 1 December 2005, 15:51.Maurice

Ok, found it, you can get the file from http://www.geocities.com/its_yahell/sd220e.rar , its a .97mb download.
Don't forget you'll need WinRar or similar to unzip this file (winzip won't do it), you can get a trial version of WinRar from http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar351.exe or there are other free utilites available elsewhere.Maurice
