Usually this doesn’t pose a problem to the average user, but it may for someone who has purchased discs from a foreign website or while visiting another country. In other words, if a disc is inserted into a player that originated from another region, it will not play because the region code does not match that of the player. Since region codes are specific to certain geographical locations, a disc can typically only be read and played by a Blu-Ray or DVD Player that was manufactured and/or intended for use in that same specific region. ![]() This data, or region code, is read by the player and if it doesn’t recognize the region code as compatible or local, the disc will not play. ![]() Region Codes are pieces of data that are embedded into Blu-Ray and DVD Discs to act as a restriction.
