Hello, all. Got VLC up and running, after all, have run a Czech region2 film of Miloš Forman (Loves of a Blonde, for whom that might be of interest) with complete success. Brilliant. Thanks again to Mike for proposing this, and to Betty for urging me on. Got it done.
But now I have a different problem. While traveling recently in Central Europe, I foolishly download the latest version of iTunes. Successful, but came onboard in Polish. Opening VLC here now came up in Polish, as well. I am sort of comfortable with Slavic languages, but for navigating programs, better for me to work in English. How do I get back there? --- On Fri, 11/20/09, b_s-wilk <[email protected]> wrote: From: b_s-wilk <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [CGUYS] Region 2 To: [email protected] Date: Friday, November 20, 2009, 10:15 AM mike <[email protected]> escribió: > Check VLC, I think it's region free. VLC, http://www.videolan.org/, works OK with our videos from Spain. Be sure that your default video player doesn't open first when you insert the DVD. Your computer may automatically reject the disk before VLC opens it. Whatever happens, DON'T change the region code in your DVD burner. You can also buy commercial DVD players that ignore region codes so you can watch your movies on the huge TV you'll be getting on Black Friday. We have a Yamakawa that's region-free; there are many more, and they're not expensive. The Yamakawa was around $30, at least 5 years ago. VLC--Yes! Enjoy the videos, with popcorn! ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** ************************************************************************* ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
