RE: Recording region

Thanks for your help! My friends` DVD is an NEC NDR50. I`ve been using Lekium DVD+R discs (4.7 gb, 1 - 16x), and finalising them. I`ve recorded on Long Play mode.

I`m now wondering whether it is a problem of incompatibility between my TV (SECAM) and the Australian one (PAL). I`m in France, and get my signals free to air via satellite from the UK.

Anyway, they are going to get a young relative to try copying my discs to a PC and burning new ones on that, and seem hopeful that it will work. Any further clues would be most welcome.

Recording region

I hope this isn`t too stupid a question. Does the region code control recording as well as reading? I have a Phillips DVDR 3480, and am recording some British TV programs to send to friends in Australia (region 4). They can`t play them, and we assume that the recorder is actually recording as region 2. If I use the hack code to change my recorder to region-free, would this make my discs readable in Australia?

Many thanks!
