Thread: Can I play a a region 1 DVD on my PC in Britain?

Would just like to know before I spend the money on a DVD for my little boy that's not yet available in the UK.

i think you can change the region on your hardware, but only a certain number of times. on a pc. but normal household dvd player wont play it.

but you could get the dvd and convert it using dvd shrink (search for a download in google) which would change it to a region free format, and be saved on the hard drive. and then you could burn the backup you made onto a dvd disc if you have a dvd burner, and then watch on a normal dvd player.
