Hi. I need help. I live in the US and purchased DVDs from Australia without realizing I couldn't play them on my Region 1 DVD player. I've talked to the manufacturer of my player and I can't adapt it. I need suggestions on how to view Region 2 DVDs.
Thanks, technochallenged

Try using AnyDVD or DVD Region+CSS Free to watch and copy any
region-coded/CSS-encrypted DVD movies on your DVD drive.

Alternatively, you can try to purchase an el-cheapo multi-region dvd player off eBay?

Also, one other solution could be to watch them off your computer?

If you have some money, buy the cables, and hook your computer up to the home theatre and voila, multi region dvd player
