Hi all:
Can someone please help me in figuring out the code to unlock Polaroid PDM-2727 Car DVD Player so that it can be used in other regions.
Your help would be much appreciated.
The url for the product is:

Thanks,
Bkoul |

To unlock the Polaroid PDM-2727, I used almost the same hack than the Polaroid PDV-800 (seems the polaroids have similar cracks):
1. Remove DVD disc from unit.
2. Turn on the DVD player.
3. Using the remote control, press the "setup" scroll down to "Preferences"
Note: If there is a disc in the player, you will not see the "Preferences" tab!!!!
4. Enter code number 1379 with the remote, the region changing code menu will appear. Then use the ENTER key of the remote to select another region code. as "0" was not available, I tried "9" and it works fine.
5. press the "enter" to save and exit.
It seem to read NTSC and PAL films |

Thanks Steven. Which countries does 9 support. Is it like 0 i.e. all regions. You mentioned NTSC and PAL. Those are precisely what I am looking for. If it is not too much trouble, can you please see if it can be set to Region 5. I want to buy it for my nephews who are overseas and as such need to make sure before I make the purchase.
Thanks in advance,
B Koul

Sorry for the very long answer,
I do not believe the region code 9 is assigned to any country zone. After using region 9, the player is reading correctly all my NTSC US DVD's (region 1) and all my PAL french DVD's (Region 2).
The player is a couple of months old now, still works great.
The transformer with the player was 110V and not 110V/240V as expected, but I use it in the car so I do not care too much.
