DVD region code

DVD region codes are a digital rights management technique designed to allow film distributors to control aspects of a release, including content, release date, and price, according to the region.

This is achieved by way of region-locked DVD players, which will play back only DVDs encoded to their region (plus those without any region code). The American DVD Copy Control Association also requires that DVD player manufacturers incorporate the regional-playback control (RPC) system. However, region-free DVD players, which ignore region coding, are also commercially available, and many DVD players can be modified to be region-free, allowing playback of all discs.

DVDs may use one code, a combination of codes (multi-region), every code (all region) or no codes (region free).

Region codes and countries

DVDs in Hispanophone Latin America and Mexico use both the region 1 and region 4 codes.

DVDs sold in the Baltic states use both region 2 and 5 codes.

Region 0 (playable in all regions except 7 and 8) is widely used by China and the Philippines.

    Region 4 was an administrative region of the city of Johannesburg, South Africa, from 2000 to 2006, situated almost exactly in the middle of the Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan Area. It contained the north-western suburbs of Johannesburg as well as western Randburg to the north and Florida to the south-west. Its central and south-eastern area stretches from Bosmont to Pageview, and south of that is the undeveloped belt of land that stretches along Main Reef Road. Starting in the north and proceeding clockwise, it bordered Regions 3, 8, 9, 10, 6, and 5. The region was abolished with a reorganisation of regions in 2006.
