Alba 106

[BROBDIGNAGIAN]

JUST BOUGHT THIS DVD PLAYER.
BUT WILL ONLY PLAY REGION 2 DISCS
BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD IT CAN EITHER BE HACKED OR CHIPPED TO BE MULTI REGION COMPATIBLE AND TO PLAY VCDS.
IS THERE ANY TRUTH IN THIS ????
IF IT CAN`T IT AIN`T A PROBLEM I JUST GOT IT AS A FIRST SYSTEM JUST TO TRY COS IT WAS ONLY £90.
PICTURE AND SOUND QUALITY SEEM OK
AS IT SEEMS SOME ALBAS HAVE BEEN SLATED IN THIS FORUM
BUT I`VE CONNECTED IT UP TO MY HI-FI AND IT SOUNDS SUPERB AND LIKE I`VE ALREADY SAID PICTURE QUALITY IS A1.
IF ITS POSSIBLE TO PLAY VCDS MORE SO THAN OTHER REGIONS THIS WOULD BE GOOD AS I`VE GOT QUITE A FEW VCDS AND HAVE TO WATCH THEM ON THE OLD PC MONITOR
HERES HOPEFULLY

Ow my head hurts! Is your Caps lock key stuck?

Looking over at www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk it seems that there is no hack currently available for this player.
