Region Free Portable DVD Player

Have you been on the hunt for a "Region Free Portable DVD Player"?

Or maybe you're asking what is a region free portable dvd player?

Well to make things really short and easy (so I don't have to write alot), a region free dvd player can play dvd's from any part of the world.

Generally speaking dvd movies from North America (USA, Canada) play region 1 movies. So if you bring you're portable dvd player to Europe, let's say. Don't be expecting that you can play a movie that you've purchase there, 'cause it likely is coded as a region 2 dvd. That's were having a region free portable dvd player comes in real handy.

Likewise people from Europe or other countries will have a difficult time playing a movie from North America on their portable dvd player.

So if you're someone who likes to buy movies off of ebay and other places, make sure your not buying movies that are coded for other regions. Sometimes movies seem really cheap, but they may not be playable on your portable dvd player because they aren't for your region.

So how do you get a Region Free Portable DVD Player, well they definitely aren't as common as other portable dvd players, but there are a few places that offer them. The computer chips within the portable dvd player are modified using CODEFREE ICOS 725 chipset technology (which means nothing to most people), this modification allows for the best quality viewing picture for movies of all regions.

So make sure that if you find a dealer that modifies portable dvd players to be region free, that they use the CODEFREE ICOS 725 chipset technology.

If you basically just travel within North America then you really shouldn't have to concern yourself with finding a region free portable dvd player.

Take Care and enjoy your movies!
