This player is listed, not only on this website but also in the instruction booklet it comes with, as being region code free or NTSC/PAL compatible.
This is an outright lie. I have a few dozen region 2 DVDs and none of them work on this player.
In addition to this there is no way that I have determined yet to fast forward or rewind on any given DVD. I suppose I could read through the directions to see if there is some halfassed method of doing so, but it would be a waste of my time since I am going to return this product.
If it seems to good to be true it probably is.

Product is relaiable and easy to use. It can read all region dvd's, mps which is good. I like using this product.
It DOES play multi regions...if you know the trick!

I recently this just to play region 2 DVD's. No, it doesn't work right out of the box, but it does work nicely!
Try this:
Start with player ON, but no disc inserted.
Press "Set up"button and release,
Press Vol +, Vol-, Vol +, Vol -,
A number 1 will show up in upper right hand corner of the screen
Change to 255 (All region) by pressing the right arrow. Keep pressing- #255 will pop up after a few tries.
Press "Set up" again.
Insert your DVD
You may need to press the NTSC/Pal button on the remote once or twice to get the screen to stop 'rolling'
This did the trick for me, and I am now happily watching Kingdom Series 1- a region 2 DVD :-)
Oh, yes it's a cheap little DVD player, so take care with it. For the low price and my purpose-it's perfect.

I got this strictly for the price, because just using it for periodic listening in the sunroom. As long as you're not looking for or needing anything more than decent CD playback, then this right right for the price! Howerver, for anything beyond that, this is not a first choice.

This player is not worth even $5.00. The open and close drawer is loud. Brand new the player does not work correctly.
Do NOT purchase.
