Does anyone have the code and instructions to unlock sony dvd player dvp-sr 150 so that it plays Region 1 as well as European dvds?

Good luck. In their never ending quest of multinational greed, Sony have made it very difficult to region-free most of their DVD players. It's a con, everyone has the right to watch a DVD that they paid for on any machine IMO.

Just one other thing - have you tried to play any region 1/European DVDs on it yet? I've read on several sites that is supposed to be region free.

As far as I know, you can`t make Sony DVD players multi-regional. You can do it with other brands but not them. You have to take it to a Sony shop and get it chipped.

Thank you. We have tried playing Region 1 DVD and it give a screen message "Playback prohitited by area limitations". I intend to return the DVD player and would not recommend anyone buying this model from Sony as it is intended to be multi-region but clearly is not.
