------------------
Here is my question:
I see ads constantly for code free players (all regions etc.) However, they
almost only
mention PAL/NTSC.
Will SECAM DVD's play therefore on a code free player? Are SECAM DVD's
considered region 2 as well as you PAL??
We bought a Daewoo recently that claimed to play PAL which it does not. the
message says "wrong region"/ However, the box and the manual says it will
play PAL DVD's
Also, I have called Pioneer/Panasonic/Sony and they say that code free
players are not made for this country. I wonder what happens to the
warranty?? Most players have world voltage on them.
Thanks
