The country/region number is usually placed over a world globe printed on the DVD packaging and disc. DVDs without country/region codes will play on any player or drive in any country/region. WARNING: You can change countries/regions only five times before the country/region code locks and becomes permanent. Once the code locks, you can play DVDs from that country/region only. If the country/region code locks, and you need help, contact Support.

Using country/region codes
Most DVD discs have country/region codes embedded in the disc data that limit
where the DVD movie can be played.
The country/region number is usually placed over a world globe printed on the
DVD packaging and disc. DVDs without country/region codes will play on any
player or drive in any country/region.
WARNING: You can change countries/regions only five times before
the country/region code locks and becomes permanent. Once the
code locks, you can play DVDs from that country/region only. If the
country/region code locks, and you need help, contact Support.
WinDVD is not pre-set to a particular country/region — the country/region code
of the first DVD movie you play determines your DVD country/region.
