ALBA DVD54 - region hack
posted by Kraykan on Monday, 3rd May 2004, 11:38

Harmless

Just bought a "bargain" DVD player : ALBA DVD54 from tesco's, 29.96.

Plays MP3 discs, DVD+R's and Kodak picture discs, and obviously Region 2 DVD's.

However, I bought the player, safe in the knowledge that pretty much all ALBA players can be hacked. Much to my dismay, I have hunted everywhere on the net, and not found one hack that works.

I can repeatedly press 1 when loading a Region 1 DVD, and the film will play. But it displays the "wrong region" window in the top left of the screen - which sucks.

There are is code where as you type something like 338017,5 enter the power. But that doesn;t work either.

Please help me, I have a lot of multi region discs that I can no longer play.

A multiregion hack would make me very happy

I've just got one of these players too, an absolute bargain, but I'd also appreciate a hack for this machine.

is it possible to hack this player?

it's possible to play R1 DVD's cos u can do the 11111 thingy on the remote when loading a DVD. so it must be possible.
