Is there a way to change the region code on a Sony HCD-S300 Please?

I bought my home theater system in the UK but have now moved to Australia. Is there a way I can change the system to play both UK and Australian DVDs? Many thanks.

Unfortunately, you have a DVD player that is "Region Specific" and cannot be changed. Your system has a region code printed on the back of the unit and will only play DVDs that are labeled with identical region codes. DVDs labeled "ALL" will also play in this unit. If you try to play any other DVD, the message " Playing this disc is prohibited by area limits." will appear on the TV screen. Depending on the DVD, no region code indication may be labeled even though playing is prohibited by area limits.

works fine - just tested it. Make sure you read through the whole thread though, as the first answer isn't right. Look at the second answer from

I got an Sony HCD S 300 Home Theater set recently. As I put in dvds and cds for playing, the dvd player says NO DISK. Thinking it is because it is not a original dvd it isn't working, I put another DVD...

It could be down to the Region of the Player or the Laser is Failing. As it doesn't play CDs then I suspect the the Laser is Failing (almost failed if it plays a cleaner but not CDs).

Regio problems

You need to make it multi region. You can either pay for it:
http://www.multiregionupgrades.com/upgrades/panasonic/scht1500.htm

or do it yourself.
0082 0015 0089 0004 00F2 0033 0017 0010 0091 0013 

You can enter these codes with a PocketPC using TV Remote Controller and making a CCF file with these codes. Or use a Palm with Omniremote. Make sure no disc in the player when entering this code.
