This is intended to permit content providers (motion picture studios, etc.) the ability to support product differences in content, price, release date, etc., by region. According to the Blu-ray Disc Association, "all Blu-ray Disc players...(and) Blu-ray Disc-equipped computer systems are required to support regional coding." However, "Use of region playback codes is optional for content providers (ie the Media)

Hi Any Player that has been modified for Multi Region, would be DVD only, you would have to check with the supplier as it is not supplied by the manufacture in this way.
