Hi all Although I was a bit sceptical, I bought this device. I applied it right now, July 23rd 2024 with my Sony CD/DVD Player DVP-NS330. 2-3 seconds after pressing the magic button there was a “marquee” (? wandering font) that said SUCCESS😁. The player turned off automatically. Then I unplugged and started: Perfect, DVD is playing, a miracle. Thank you very much. Now I am a believer 😅👌🏼🎶🙏🏼😎 Raphael, Zurich, Switzerland 🇨🇭
Hello, I have just received my device yesterday and I am about to use it. But before starting I did not see on your video if I must press the button to start de firmware or does it start automatically ? Second question: when I press the button after setting the batteries, the LED flashes more than 5 times: actually it flashes as long as I keep it pressed... Thank you for your answer.
Hi thanks for watching. As far as I remember it depends on wether its a dvd or bluray player. i think on for blurays and standby for dvd player. no disc in. press and let go the button. wait 10 seconds unplug wait another 10 seconds plug back in. hope that helps.
Hi, Thanks for watching, that model isn't on the list for the remote I have, but you could maybe ask the seller - search "seller:dvdc-2022" on ebay. Hope that helps, Pete.
Do you sell your DVD/BD players on FB marketplace or eBay?(do you have any links?) I'm in the US & that remote won't really work over here from what I read. I'm looking for an inexpensive Blue Ray/DVD player with HDMI that's region free for use over here. Thanks!
Hi thanks for watching. I dont think that one can be unlocked with this remote anymore as they have updated the firmware. Another type with new codes might do it byt I dont know the details. Either way you need codes put in with a remote. Regards, Pete
Very interesting video Pete never know about those DVD remotes hacks, I keep getting Sony ones in bundles from auctions and I think you say manky 3 times. Cheers Pete TMT
Hi. Thanks for watching. This particular one is just for Uk region 2 , But look about on google, I think it would be just that the codes are different so one may be available for your region.
If you go and look at the listings for the remotes, they have a list they work for. But yes,lots of them don't unlock unless they have new codes. The manufacturers have moved on to Blu-rays now, but region free Blu-ray is getting commoner.
I live in Dubai, UAE & I would like to buy that Remote Pls. Pls do let me know if it’s possible. I have the same Blu Ray player & unable to watch movers that I bough from US & other regions.
Hi thanks for watching. they are available on eBay UK . BUT they are programmed for UK models of the dvd and blueray players. I'm afraid they probably won't work.
Hi thanks for watching, but I thinn hou misunderstood the video. I don't sell them. I had bought one and showed it worki g. I bought it from eBay, where thay are still on sale .
@@PetesRetroCollectables I did watch the video when it first came out (that bell notification is really handy) i do need to try and find the time to sit down for a rewatch.
Hello Pete, can you confirm if the DVP-SR170 can be made region free? the one you seem to be using in the video is actually a DVP-SR160 which seems to be identical other than the scart port. I'm asking this because the DVP-SR160 is in the list on the ebay page while the 170 isn't and I don't want to buy a player that turns out to not work with the remote.
Hi Camy, the DVP-SR170 doesnt always work, some do and others don't. I'd go on the safe side and don't buy it to convert. I think I got lucky with mine in the video( or maybe it was a 160!), but lately the 170's aren't converting. It could be different firmware in later models.
Can this be done on a Sony DvdSR210P I have a friend that wants this done and I could do it if there's a mether and it works on that model msg me anyone if it will work.
Do you have a link where the device can be brought or what needs to be searched for ? Thanks
Yes. Here it is: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353796496254
did not work for me
Will this work on a bluray 3700 player.
Dont rhink so irs not on the list .I think thats too new

Hi Peter i have got a Sony dvp-sr760h please can you help me
Hi it's not possible to upgrade those . But they do upscale dvds to 1080p anyway so not a bad player anyway. Thanks for watching. 🙂
Doesn't work for a Sony DVP-SR760H :(
Yeah unfortunately not all machines are able to be unlocked. Thanks for watching anyways. 👍
Tested and doesn't work for BDP S3700 Model. If anyone knows if it's possible on this model, please let me know.
Hi thanks for watching. Sorry I don't have the data on this newer model, just the ones on the remote sellers list.

oooh cool, great video. Seen a few other videos with people's methods
Thanks,. Drop a comment with the number of manky's and you could win it!
I really want one of these that supports the BDP-S1500, any thoughts please mate?

Hi, Thanks for watching. I mostly sell them on eBay, when I get them. They are becoming harder to find these days!
Hi my DVD player is DVP-170 and i was wondering if it's possible without this device? I just wanna watch a DVD I bought that's region one

Idk why my dvd player cant play some dvd but it can read vcd and music cd..... Help
Maybe the region is different. What model/region is it? Are you in the UK?
No sir.... I live in Malaysia
I don't think I can help you then as I'm only good with UK models. Have a good day though.🙂

Thanks Pete 👍
hi, nice work and video. would this device work on sony dvds from another region as region 4 unlook to all
Hi. Thanks for watching. This particular one is just for Uk region 2 , But look about on google, I think it would be just that the codes are different so one may be available for your region.
Every model has a different codes for free region , so these code doesn’t work for all Sony dvd players .
If you go and look at the listings for the remotes, they have a list they work for. But yes,lots of them don't unlock unless they have new codes. The manufacturers have moved on to Blu-rays now, but region free Blu-ray is getting commoner.

Can I buy one off you got 100£ of dvds only play regon 1 help mesag me back thank you
Hi thanks for watching, but I thinn hou misunderstood the video. I don't sell them. I had bought one and showed it worki g. I bought it from eBay, where thay are still on sale .
Working for BDP s480 by Sony ?
Hi yes that's on the list, but I would check in the ebay listing to make sure before purchase. the link is in the description.
I'm UK
theres a link to the sony remote on the ebay page in the description.Hope that helps
My guess is 3 times as well
That a total guess ? 🤣 🤔 just watch the video with a pen&paper. I'll let you edit your guess.....

Not all brands,only certain model.
Yep.this

I am just seeing that the 170 also has released with a scart port so i stand corrected. Then I'm sure that it will work. Sorry!

It´s OK for DVP-SR760H ??? Thank you
some will but most won't. It all depends on what firmware they have. Unfortunately uou cant tell so they aren't on the list for this remote.
Is there a solution for this model yet? The Sony codes have been changed.
no unfortunately I don't have one.
Can this be done on a Sony DvdSR210P I have a friend that wants this done and I could do it if there's a mether and it works on that model msg me anyone if it will work.
It's not on the list that have the codes on this remote. Sorry
did not work for my blu ray sony
The list of models and instructions are on the advert for the remote.
ubp x800 did not work sony
It's not on the list of models it works for . None starting with ubp are.
Not work .
Thanks for watching. I've done many unlocks with my remote.
@@PetesRetroCollectables keep doing it! Excellent!
