I only recently bought the Move's "Magnetic Waves Of Sound" CD / DVD set especially for the 'Colour Me Pop' programme which I had never seen in its entirety; however, the DVD is a Region 0 disc, and my player refuses to read it. I have other Region 0 discs which play fine but this one won't, disappointingly. Has anyone else had an issue with this, I wonder?

Sorry to hear that it's not playing.
I have no problems with my copy, It plays fine on both my players.

If you have a desk PC you could try reading it on that.. you may need an extraction program (there should be open-source ones available) to look at the files which can then be copied to an MP4 file. anyway just a thought |

There is no possibility that the disc being Region 0 is a problem. There is a very small chance (e.g. if you are using a very old TV) that the disc being NTSC is a problem. If multiple players cannot read it and they can always read other NTSC/R0 DVDs, you have a faulty disc.

Thanks Darren; this is my second copy of the set, the first was a second hand item which looked as new but wouldn't play, so I bought a new sealed copy of the set and this one won't play either! I think I'll give up on 'Magnetic Waves Of Sound', and hope that the BBC shows the Colour Me Pop episode at some point, although I doubt they will. |
