DVD Player & Regions

i have a rake of region 2 DVD's that i brought over from Ireland with me to Canada. I bought a new DVD player in a shop here and specifically asked which one is multi region so i was sold one of the cheaper models. Hey presto, i go to watch A Room for Romeo Brass yesterday and it wont play it or any of the other Region 2 dvd's.

So i have a couple of questions for the technogeeks here.

1) is there some sort of code i have to enter onto my player and would anyone have any idea how i would do it and where i would find it?

2) if i wanted to play it on my laptop and hook my alptop up to my tv, what cables do i need and how do i do it?

Cheers :o

there are region hacks available for most DVD players, I fixed my brother's at Christmas, what's the make and model of the player?

thanks Tets,

its the LG player, model DV380H-N

make sure you burn it on a blank CD, not a blank DVD, and it should be fine

thats brilliant Tets, ill try it out tonight and let you know if it worked.

Cheers
