This means that the DVD player can play a DVD from any region, such as North America and Europe.

It means that you can watch any DVD, no matter what region (country) it came from. There are four regions. For example DVD's produced in North America are region 1, DVD's produced in Europe are region 2.

It plays dvds from my region. I.e. usually US DVD player won't play DVD bought in Europe. This machine goes to the root drive in the dvd and so pays dvd bought anywhere. It works for me as I what to play my Europe bought dvds (region 2) on a US powered DVD player (region 1). This dvd player doesn't discriminate where the DVD is from.

It means that any DVDs from any place in the world can play on them. If a DVD is made for Europe for example it will not play on an American player so a region free players will play any DVDs.

"It is a region free player"No, it is NOT a region free player, it plays region 1 DVDs and region A Blu-ray discs. It also plays region 0 DVDs.

It can play MKV files of any size (supports FAT32 & NTFS). Don't think it's region free...

It's for all regions. I bought it so I could play dvds from Europe, which I believe are Region 2.

This player only plays region 1 or all region meaning that the disc from that region example USA or Canada disc only. Hopes this answers the question. Good day!

I'm not sure about region free. But the screen is very clear and BIG for a portable dvd player. Only problem, if you can call it a problem, is I would like the volume to go up a bit higher. Other than that, it's a great player and very easy to operate.

Sorry. I just used this device tu burn data disks (25GB data) for backups. Is a good unit. In my knowledge, when you burn a disk for yourself, is region free.

Yes, all PS3 games are region free. The same goes for PSP, PSVita, PS4, Xbox One and all Nintendo DS except 3DS and 2DS. It's a helpful thing to know.

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.

Yes, The answer that Carol the Dabbler gave you just might be what is wrong. Here is the ASIN Number for NON Region free [B00FF9SVWA] and the ASIN for Region Free [B00HM9TIS2]

Apparently this unit can't be made region-free.I bought the Philips DCP951/37 (saving some bucks), which, like with any Philips DVD player, can be made region-free by punching a few codes (a once in its lifetime operation). The code is easily searchable.Life's too short to deal with the region-lock BS.
