It worked for me (after a few false starts)

What is the multiregion code for an LG rc1000 DVD/vhs combi player. I BOUGHT A DVD FROM AUSTRALIA WHICH WILL NOT PLAY. IT SAYS INCORRECT REGION.THANKYOU.

I would think you would need to search the DVD forums around for any hacks that might help you, though I would think for older devices incorporated with VHS players there may be none because of their limited use outside region 2 Europe. A DVD player on its own has a more global appeal so would have more interest.
You would have to look around for a used open region device or one from that region though their selling prices are good P&P can be a !!!

Sorry, visit a DVD forum is my best suggestion........

Unlock DVD LG rc1000

The music association does not want users to play DVDs from other countries. Your DVD player will switch countries about three times then lock up. Contact the OEM, they have to do that by law in the US.

Here are some hacks to resolve the problem.

Turn on the unit and open the tray. Press 0000 on the remote to access the DVD region code selector.

Change the EEPRom code to 0 to remove the region lock.

Press Pause to exit the screen and your LG V271 should now be region free.

How do I unlock my LG RC388 to play other region disks

YES, it can be changed to view all regions. I've just done my new RC388 (bought it 4 hours ago) and it works.

To start the hack:
Click the home button on the remote, go to the Setup page, highlight the 16X9 TV aspect ratio and enter in this coded sequence: 1 3 9 7 1 3 9

A new factory menu now comes up on the screen.

To change the values of these options hit the enter button and scroll with arrow keys until you get to the option you want to change. For the region code hack replace the value of "option 5" with the value of: ff

Press enter.

(Changing this value will set unit to region code 0 which should allow any region to be played on the player.)

Now, hit the "return" button to save and exit.

Switch off the machine - switch on - all is well now.

Good Luck,
Will
