This is usually possible with NEC drives, using binflash and hacked firmware from Liggy & Dee. Works like a charm, but it isn't really needed for region coding thanks to dvdcss. Another possibility is a "region hack" for your standalone player: take a look at www.videohelp.com. I "fixed" this way a LG player. -- Il messaggio e' stato analizzato alla ricerca di virus o contenuti pericolosi da MailScanner, ed e' risultato non infetto. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
