I cant believe that I cant play DVDs due to the regions problem! I mean, it was years ago when DVDs were incompatible with different countries and stuff, but nowadays its all solved. Well, for most of the people, not for me. I dont know if my DVD burner is cheesy or DVD is broken, but this is the first time I experience this. I am from the English speaking area, Britain, and this DVD is from America. Now, what should I do in order to watch it?

Just switch region in you DVD player. I mean, you software player. You know, in windows media player there is regions option, so you should just select English, or whatever. Try this if you are a Windows user. All DVDs can be hacked, so maybe its not a bad idea to copy it on your hard drive then to convert it. You can use Dr Divx for file conversion, thats what I am using. This is the only 100 successful method I can think of. Is your DVD player multiregional? Check this in your manual. I am telling you, if nothing works, you can always convert it to divx or mpeg for example. There are those adapter which can help you with different regions. I think that English region is default setting in most of the devices.
