I recently purchased a DVD here in the UK from Amazon. And my WinDVD will not play it, as it says "Playback of this contect is not permitted from this region".

Anyone any idea/fixes to overcome this problem please?

Here is some good information: http://www.free-code...d/DVD_Genie.htm

Essentially what you need to do is check out the firmware for your dvd drive. The best resource for this is http://cdrinfo.com

I also found this: http://3dgamer.tripod.com/. It may or may not work for you, depending on what version of WinDVD that you have.

Also, as indicated by the dvd genie instructions, you may need this: http://www.free-code...on_CSS_Free.htm
