About region numbers

All DVD‑Video discs carry a region mark on

the case somewhere that indicates which

region(s) of the world the disc is compatible

with. Your DVD player also has a region mark,

which you can find on the rear panel. Discs

from incompatible regions will not play in this

player. In this case the attention sentence

Incompatible disc region number Can't play

disc is displayed on screen. Discs marked

ALL will play in any player. The diagram below

shows the various DVD regions of the world.
