@nospam: "A friend of mine got a DVD that came free with a magazine, which has been 
coded Region I. She'd like to be able to play on a European set-top DVD 
player. I've tried Nero Recode with DVD Region Free in the b/g but it 
produced a disk identical to the original. For some reason I can't get DVD 
Shrink to run on this system, is there a way to make a region-free DVD off 
this original, after all it's a freebie not a movie.
Any ideas?

    @spam: "Two options -
1) Change the region code of your PC/ DVD Drive to play the disc, you can do 
this 5 times including the initial time - the official line.
2) Decrypt the DVD with DVDDecyrypter (in full file mode) and either play 
the Vob files directly, or run DVDShrink on these files. (NB: DVDDecyrypter 
seems to be one of the few programs that works around the region protection 
issues.
You'll still get a NTSC DVD, but the copy should work Ok on home players.

    @buchetamo: "You can buy a CD called DVD Unlocker at Ebay for US$5.00 which includes
many, many brands from several DVD manufacturers & following their
instructions with your remote control you can make your DVD player (stand
alone) region free, this will allow you to play videos from anywhere in the
world!!
