em.....region lock?

region lock? the disc itself got ABC region, A for SEA, so should be i choose A right?

http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/05/09/r...o-free-locking/

but i have no idea how to do it... that one link tells about WinXP and Vista, i'm on Windows 7 x64, PowerDVD 10, couldn't find the CLDXShow.ini, instead in the installation folder in Program Files x86/

yea....region a is sea

but is ur bluray rom region a as well?

that one, i'm not sure...

you could ask here,

Make sure you are using PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D and not any other PowerDVD 10, the rest doesn't play Blu-ray, only the Ultra version play Blu-ray. I prefer ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre though.

yeap, i'm on PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D

Then you might want to try ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre, or get a lower version of PowerDVD. The new one seems a bit cranky, it doesn't even run on my system just because I am using dual screen with one in portrait mode lol

i still can't play the BD...

1. What version of Power DVD Ultra 3D you are on?
2. Is this a cracked version or the trial version?
3. What OS you are on?
4. Do you have the correct codec pack installed?

check current bd drive region using nero drive tool

1. Power DVD Ultra 3D 10
2. i downloaded both, cracked and original (trial)
3. Windows 7 Ultimate x64
4. K-Lite MegaPack 6.66

*Btw, to all, this is just an opinion. Not promoting or encouraging usage of pirated software*

Mate,

You might need to uninstall the K-Lite Codec and download the Shark007 Win7 Codec and install it. My PC with Windows 7 Ultimate Edition x64 uses Win7 codec pack c/w x64 add-on. And i'm using latest patched *ahem* version of PowerDVD Ultra 3D v 10.2xxx (cant remember).

You need to make sure that you have the Region code by default to Region A. I'm still doing some finding on how to tackle the Region code issue. Needs an editing on the registry. Set to 65k i remember the last i read somewhere.

Does your graphic card has HDMI output? or its DVI? You need to calibrate the graphic cards settings.

Region lock shouldnt be a problem, for example if you are on Region A and your BD is b, when playback the BD, the software will change your drive region to match the BD region, automatically.
But only for 5 times, if you keep playback different region of BD your drive will be locked to only one region.

AND, most BD are region-lock free one iirc...

Make sure the BD is playable on stand alone BD player too.

ok, now d/loading Shark, uninstalling K-Lite, then see what happen

my HD5850 got HDMI, Display Port, 2xDVI, HDMI goes to 42", 1 of the DVI goes to my 23"

Great, see if that helps. Get both 32bit client and the x64 add-on. Great, so HDMI sorted out. Let us know what happens after reverting codec pack.
Do reboot your machine for changes to happen.

Do not install any trial version or newly released patch on top of your *ahem* version of PowerDVD ultra 3D

Yep, you are right, but there's a way to use limitless number Region count. Still finding a way to edit it.
Are you on BDROM as well?

nope, unfortunately i still can't play BluRay playback, it gave me same error like this
