Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone has successfully used a remote control hack on this player to allow multiregion playback?

Thanks for any feedback

Already been answered few times on an earlier threads (forum search).

Basically there are no handset hacks for any Sony model. This thread will help with "FREE" modification options you can do yourself, or the banner at the foot of these forums for a "PAY" option.

I ordered a remote from dvdchips (a panasonic dvd player, which, like Sony, there are no hacks for unless you buy a chipped remote) and it actually works!

It can be done....with a special remote....but it costs !!!

2 - 255
3 - 095
4 - 221
5 - 079

1. hold magic button device key blinks twice
2. press 994
3. press magic
4. enter 3digit code from above
5. press button (1..5) where to program it
6. repeat steps 1 to 5 for all keys.

2. press 1,2,3,4,5 - Timer OK is displayed for DVD RECORDER HACK
 
I just hacked my new RDR-HX510 using a remote I got off ebay, cost was £9.99 and return postage for the remote. Bit of a bargain and it works.
If anybody wants to know who it was from, ( Its not me, or anybody I know personally!) just ask

Hi
pls can you provide the detials ?

:))
 
Sure, put this item number into ebay, 5840129623 If this isnt available or the listing is ended, contact the seller.

It definately works, he sends full instructions and its really simple to do. If it doesnt work the first time, keep pressing the Mac 1 button every few seconds ( all will become clear when you get the remote) , it will eventually do it

Does anyone know if this will work on the 310?

TIA:)
 
Think this a LG based machine-probably need the same hack as on the GX-210.Have alook at Videohelp.com.

Thanks for this Justin. I'm in a dilemma. I can buy this recorder for £295 standard or £329 professionally hacked... My current DVD player I bought from the same place selling it professionally hacked www.multiregionmagic.co.uk but my current player I've had problems with so would prefer to buy a standard model and hack via remote.

The only thing is, will this hack play all my RCE etc. DVDs from the US?

I would prefer to buy a unmodded player, so will this hack do everything a professionally modded hack would do?

Thanks :)

if you have not bought the unit yet, then buy it pre-modded! Yes it costs a little more, but the whole point of specialist multiregion dealers such as multiregionmagic selling pre-modded machines is that you have not lost your warranty as you purchased the unit pre-modified - any problems and the dealer will resolve the problems direct.

...So will the 510 hack work for the 310?:lease:

Looking at the list of players that the 510 hack will do, the 310 isnt listed. The 210 can be hacked using a cd. If you cant get any other info on a hack for your 310, look at the link I posted on the first page of this thread or check out this item in ebay ( 5840129623 ) Ask the seller if he can do a 310 hack for you.

:suicide: How many times??!

The 310 is nothing like a 210 (a 210 is, infact, made by LG and badged sony) and CAN be hacked like a 510.

When using this process if you are using a One 4 All remote put a 0 in front of the 3 digit codes ie 0189 1.
it will then work. Have Fun
