My unit plays all region DVDs. IT will play some Region 2 Blu-ray, but not other Region 2 Blu-ray. Anybody know why? Examples: it will play The Wicker Man region 2 Blu-ray, but not The Shout Region 2 Blu-ray. Please advise.

My suggestion would be to buy a Sherwood BDP-5004 Blu-ray Disc Player (Black) which is a Momitsu 899 under the skin, and which, with a remote code, can be switched from BD A to BD B and to all regions of DVD, or any one region of DVD. Yes, the Brit BD player would be a problem because SD elements on a Region B BD are often SD PAL. Also some BDs are 1080i/50 Hz ("Super PAL") rather than the US 1080i/60 Hz. The Sherwood/Momitsu can be set for NTSC output through the HDMI cable and will play ANY European BD of any type. All for cheap. Buy two!

Almost every Blu-ray or DVD player from Sony will only play discs for the region it is sold. Only a modified Sony player will play multiple regions , which will of course void its warranty.

It's my understanding that the disks burned by this item are region free. I have never had any problem with them being played on any blu ray player.

No, it does not. It only plays DVDs from the region where you buy the player. Source: personal experience :(

According to the Manual it's a "USA,Canada" region, however, it also says DVD = Region ALL, and Region 1; Blu-Ray = Region ALL. Check your disks, for DVD's they probably have to be region 1 or All (all 8 regions set) and for Blu-Rays look for the Globe with an "A" on it encompassed by a Hexagon.Hope that helps :-)

So far I have used Region 1 and 2 discs. No problems. It is a really great player. Very sharp pictures.

I only buy regions codes for my country, the USA. Any other regions will NOT play. That's why I always double check to see what code the DVD is in. I also do not buy many BluRay DVDs because the formats are sometimes annoyingly slow to function.

I assume you're talking blu ray movies. Play them? probably, display them correctly? I mean the ones encoded at 25fps that aren't region lock, I don't think so but I've never tried them myself. For Region B locked Blu rays no unless the console is the pal version. Region Free I'm pretty sure means for games only, there is one game I know of that is an exception to this rule: Persona 4 Arena. In short no it will not play Pal encoded Blu Rays nor display them correctly.

This unit claims to play all regions. I personally have played American and Chinese DVD's and BluRay's; therefore I am sure it will play UK too. It is a very fine machine that I highly recommend.

I have not had a problem playing disc from several regions although I do not have any region 6 disc.

This dvd player will not play a Pal BD disk or any Pal DVD for that matter. Gus K is wrong about no Pal Blu-ray. Just check Blu-rays at Amazon UK.

Yes, this player plays blu ray discs from regions A,B,and C, as well as DVDs from regions 1 through 6.

No. Many Blu-rays are NOT region encoded; you can check yours to see if they have an A/B/C designation. If not, you are good to go on Blu-ray. If region is an issue for your collection, you can check out hacks like this to make your player region free: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks/panasonic-dmp-bd65/10861 (similar model) If you have DVDs you want to play back, you will run into PAL (Europe) vs NTSC (US) issues even if you apply a region code hack like this. You would have to search for a firmware hack to play PAL DVDs.
