Page 1 of Oh no... Scan 440LSI problem

Against my better judgement I bought a Scan 440LSI this weekend. It arrived today and I was REALLY looking forward to playing my region 1 discs that I bought recently. It`s my first multi-region experience and I was pretty excited by the prospect (don`t laugh).

I plugged it in, swiched it on and loaded the disc only to read `wrong region code`. I thought it was supposed to be multi-region straight from the box?!?

Oh joy... I`ve emailed Scan and I guess I`ll be joining all of you who seem to be having problems with them.

Why didn`t I listen to you all........

You have to manually set the region if using an RCE disc.

Should be an loose info sheet enclosed in the instruction manual.

RCE discs :
1. Ensure tray is closed and in "No Disc" mode.
2. Enter 77 on remote
3. Press "Play"
4. Should get onscreen selection menu
5. Enter reqd. region/country
6. Exit menu

To reset to region "0" - No Disc> 77> Play> press "Enter" twice
