Region code / Region free

Hi there,

I'm new here and was wondering how to deal with the GeoBlocking / Region Code protected disks.

AFAIK DVD/Blue-Rays have those enabled and UHD have inherited the Blue-Ray Region Codes but do not enforce them (yet?):
* https://www.220-electronics.com/blog/re ... t-fiction/
* "Greenland" and "Death Wish" seem to enforce the UHD Region codes

I'm looking for a device to playback (and also maybe backup) DVDs, BDs, UHDs (3Layer) from different regions. Using windows.

* What do I need to configure or flash to do so?
* Do I need AnyDVD for that?

makemkv can get rid of all region stuff

i recommend the BU40N
and follow the UHD guide below
anydvd is not needed and wont work with the BU40N for UHD but will work for all other discs
