im looking at the Clarion VRX935VD form the US
Its a all in one unit tv and dvd player
region 1
both pal and ntsc
so can you change it from region 1 to region 4??

http://shop.ryda.com.au/main_itemdetail.asp?cat=1& amp;item=VRX935VD

The VRX935VD is Clarion's ProAudio flagship of its multimedia line-up. Featuring a fully motorized 7" wide screen LCD with touch panel control, a built-in DVD player that plays audio CD's, DVD video, video CD's and MP3 files on CD-R/RWs. CeNET connection offers full touch panel control of an optional 6 disc DVD changer, Sirius Satellite Radio Receiver, TV Tuner, Dolby Digital/DTS/Dolby Pro Logic II 5.1 surround sound decoder and a 6 disc audio changer. Dual Zone control directs a second video input to a rear seat monitor while the front seat passengers can listen to another audio/video source.
You can select from 8 different screen colors to match your interior lighting, and when the main LCD screen is retracted into the dash, a front panel dot matrix display allows you full control over all of the VRX935VD's functions. Of course, an IR Remote control is included.

Yeah your right, I didn't realise you had a contact over there that could do that for you. A good friend of mine has recieved heaps of gear (mostly computer gear) from the states and he has a friend over there that always disguises it as a gift.

most dvd players can be made multi-region with codes, search the web for them and the particular player.
