| Unblocking Your Software |
After having unblocked your DVD unit or recorder as explained on last page, you need to unblock the program that you use to watch DVDs WinDVD, PowerDVD, CoolDVD, etc.
When you run a DVD that has an area code, the program will be configured with the same area as the disk. For instance, if you run an area 4 disk the player will be automatically configured as area 4. The same happens to the DVD unit; only 4 to 6 area alterations are permitted, depending on the program. Usually the program shows a confirmation screen informing for which area it is being configured and how many area alterations are still possible. When you zero the amount of possible alterations, the program gets locked in the last configured area, only allowing disks from that area to be run.

The solution for this blocking is very simple. All you have to do is use the program DVDGenie (http://www.inmatrix.com/files/dvdgenie_download.shtml) to configure the player area. This program can alter the area of practically all DVD program in the market without any changes to the number of area alterations left. All you have to do is install and run this program before playing a DVD from a different area than last one played. The use of the program is very simple: just select the program (WinDVD, PowerDVD, etc), select the intended area and click in Apply.
