Panasonic DMP-BD55

Can you, if so, what is the easiest way to make this player play all region DVD's/Blu-ray Disc's?
Sorry if this has been covered, but can't seem to find any info.
Thanks.

It can certainly be modded to be multi-region for DVD - i've seen several retailers sell it as such - but I don't think it's an easy 'handset hack' or disc upgrade (i'd love to be proved wrong on that!)

I don't think you can! You might be able to find a way to unlock the DVD part (but be careful, the suggestions I've seen was not plain and simple). But for Blu-ray, not to my knowledge.

"Easy" if you have Harmony remote - On another forum you can request id and login to unlock it for DVD, also from said forum I downloaded a CCF file for use with my Pronto and no issues (BD-35). You can but a remote with the codes built in and I think they even return you a fiver or 10 if you send remote back. Blu-Ray multi-region reuqires a hardware mod. and If I recall correctly costs £100/150

Thanks for all the replies, can this be done without a 'harmony' remote?

Rock Man:Thanks for all the replies, can this be done without a 'harmony' remote?

If by that you mean any remote the answer is no. It can be done with a Harmony,One for all Kameleon, or Philips Pronto , or a bought remote that you can return or keep . the hex codes can also be sent via IR on a PDA. Others may be possible but I gve up my search when I found the CCF file which I could use on my Pronto.

What i meant - not very clear on my part, sorry. Is do you need a seperate remote or can this region free hack be done from the Panny remote?
