How can I change the regioncode on my Yamakawa ? The Yamakawa can be either made regionfree or you can select other regioncodes manually. On this page I explain you how to switch regioncodes manually. On the Yamakawa regionfree page you will find how to make the player regionfree. On the DVD-Regioncode page you can find additional information on what regioncode means. Note: some tricks are depending on the firmware! Tip: consider visiting the Yamakawa DVD group at Yahoo groups!

Note: this feature is not supported by all firmwares ! Firmware 3C is known to not support this. Consider updating to 3H !

Try this on the remote control (please insert a DVD first and make playback stop):

"SETUP" - "SLOW" - "SKIP-RIGHT"

After this code, use the "RIGHT" button to toggle codes:

Next press the "PLAY" button to make the player accept the new regioncode.

If you're not sure which keys on the remote you should use then take a look at the deatils found on the Remote Control page.
