I burned a dvd screener Mr. and Mrs. Smith,the dvd will play on the pc fine but when i put it in my stand alone player it tells me “Playback prohibited by area limitations” So i got in my dvd manual to see what that meant and it has to do with region code. My dvd player is a Region 1. The manual also says “Depending on the DVD, no region code indication may be labeled even though playing the DVD is prohibited by area restrictions."

I have burned many dvd’s and I have two movies that I have burned that is telling me that on my dvd player. The files are in dvd format (vob.) and ready to burn.

What do I do or what do I need to burn these files to play on my stand alone player. I have researched for three days and have not found any help so any suggestions would be appreciated.

One more thing It is a Sony DVD Player. I have three players that I tried the dvd disk on and the software I’ve tried is DVD Santa, DivxtoDvd, and Dvd Decrypter.

Since U said that U have 3 DVD players @ home, then U make either any 1 of them 2 become region free by programming with the remote controll. Here is the link. (Just select the model of the DVD player that U have)
