Samsung DVD-511 - How do reset hack to Factory State?

Mostly Harmless

Hi everyone!

It's been a long time since I last came in on this forum - mainly because I haven't needed any hacks because all of the Panasonic DVD players I have been using in the last few years have all been region free - what a fantastic idea from those Panasonic people!

My mother has recently come to live close by and i am setting her up with a TV system using a few of my old faithful, (but still working like new), peripherals. To be honest the Samsung DVD-511 is still a good machine and that's why I kept it boxed up and stored away up my loft.

I am giving her the Samsung. It is perfectly OK for her to watch her old romantic movies etc. and it will play few CDs to boot, (although I don't know about CD -R/+R and RW).

When I last used it it was set up using the multi region hack code from this website, i.e.

I would like to reset the DVD player to its factory setting at region 2 so that all of the functions work normally.

Can anyone help me out in what I have to do?

I would really appreciate any help available with this old machine.

Found this on Samsung's website...

Resetting the Factory Settings Samsung DVD players have a built-in reset procedure that resets the DVD player to the factory defaults. You can use the reset procedure to reset settings that don’t work with your TV or to resolve issues such as unit lock up. To run the reset procedure, you press one or more buttons on the front of the DVD player and hold them for at least fifteen seconds. The buttons your press depend on the model you have.

Important: For the reset procedure to work, you must press the buttons on the front of the player, not on the remote control for the player.

Below is a list of all Samsung DVD players and the buttons to press to run the reset procedure.
