Most filmmakers agree that copyright protection of bai films is an important issue for du. In order to solve this problem, every DVD player has a corresponding region code. This code indicates the country in which the player was purchased and can be played in which country.
If you live in North America and buy a player made in North America, you will only be able to play discs produced in Zone 1 or North America. Some adult programs and technical programs have no code restrictions and can be played on any player.
There are 8 area codes.
The player discriminates the disc du based on the unified region code of the whole bai. If a disc can be played in more than one area, it will have more than one global area code.
·Zone 1: United States, Canada
·Zone 2: Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East (including Egypt)
·Zone 3: Southeast Asia, East Asia (including Hong Kong)
·Zone 4: Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Central America, Mexico, South America, Caribbean
· District 5: Eastern Europe (Former Soviet Union), India, Africa, North Korea, Mongolia
District 6: China
· Zone 7: reserved
· Zone 8: Special international zone (aircraft, ship, etc.)

If you want to make your players region free, you can go to VideoHelp forum and then go to the DVD hack section. Also, if you are suffering from region-locked DVD, you can try to download a region-free DVD player on your PC, such as Leawo Blu-ray Player.

DVD players designed for the US are set for Region 1 and cannot be used with DVD's that are from other regions such as Great Britain and most of Europe which use Region 2 DVD's . What you need is a "Region Free" player which plays all regions or a player that plays your specific region. We live in the US but watch many British DVD series so use.a Region Free player as they are Region 2 and we are in Region 1.

maybe you can return the player or at least get some sort of credit for it towards the correct region player. If you are unsure of your region, just Google it.

Why does the DVD player in my 2015 Nissan Pathfinder say invalid region?

Question edited for clarity.

It means the the car was imported from a different country. or that the DVD Player was bought in a different country to be retrofitted to a vehicle so that existing purchased DVDs can be played.

So, the car was originally bought in Mexico and sold in Canada. Only Mexican DVDs play.

or Car was bought in Canada, and the DVD Players was bought in Mexico so the Mexican family can play the DVDs they had at home.

It is called a Region Lock. Some are fixed, some can be changed once or twice.

Dvd player error message invalid region code

You can not fix this, DVDs are coded in such a way that a for instance a DVD sold in the European market can't be played on a DVD player sold in the USA. You can buy region free DVD players, but they are not sold at the local electronics stores, they are available on eBay I'm told.

Nissan Elgrand Where can i find an English onwer's manual Book and English Navigation system Book for 1998 Nissan Elgrand Model?

There is an article on eBay by a1benz about this. He claims the factory fitted Navigation system can not work in the UK or Europe and he fits replacement systems. He says that CD player will only play DVD's if they are navigation discs and will not play DVD movie discs (Is this due to the Region settings on the player perhaps?)
It is also worth noting that the TV system is NTSC not PAL so anything you try and plug into it will need to have the output set to NTSC!
I have found a supplier offering English Navigation Discs for v6 and v7 of the Nissan XANAVI system but unfortunately I don't know what Elgrand system version is.

How can I play all DVDs on the DVD player?

The DVD player maybe locked to a region, to make the player regionless so it can play DVDs from any region the player need the firmware changed.
But if you make a mistake then the player will be a piece of junk.

2003 Discovery II 2 problems... I keep getting water on the front driver side floor (soaked) What and where should I check? The other problem is the 3 light on my dash ABS/Brake/? they stay on and have...

There are drain holes in the bottom of the door that may be clogged. Open the door and look up at the bottom for hole, which may be covered with rubber flaps. Also if the door was serviced the mechanic may not have reinstalled the inner rain shield correctly. If this car uses a Bosch ABS system, there is a fix. These units burnout a circuit internally. Search the web or Ebay for ABS module failure.
