DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC):
The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video discs
(such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the world into
different regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets into which the
motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes are placed on movies
marketed throughout the world, based on the region of the world in which they are
being sold. These RPC codes help control and prevent pirating of new movies into
other motion picture regions prior to their true release dates within those markets.
The SM-332 COMBO drive supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the local
code can be changed by users.
RPC-2 is selected by default for the SM-332 COMBO drive.
You can change the region code up to five times via an MPEG application.
Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you wish to change
the local code more than five times.
