  That's correct, thanks. I'd never even checked the region, being basically 
ignorant about computer DVD drives. All I knew was that the DVDs here were 
region 1. Having done some reading on the subject (and grabbed regionset), 
I'm curious to see whether any disc will cause problems without setting it. 
At least I know what to do if I run into the problem. :)
