Review on Sony Multi Region 3D Blu Ray DVD Player with Dual Voltage – Upgraded Version, Including 6 Feet HDMI Cable by Stephen Burgstaller

Revainrating 3 out of 5

What a stupid mistake on my part

I just want to thank the seller Global Electronics for getting the All Regions feature of this player. I had a problem with the player after a Sony firmware update that took place online. I assumed nothing could go wrong. After about a month, I noticed that none of the 10 or so Region B Blu-rays I had were working. I contacted the seller and explained the problem. Within MINUTES they emailed me back and gave me a few solutions to try including the zipped file to try another update. It did not work. So they let me send the device back for their pennies. I have made. They emailed me to say that the 'fast boot' feature had somehow been re-enabled (I suspect it's due to a firmware update as I never enabled it) - can't stress enough, how this function must be work. BE DISABLED to make "all regions" work. What a stupid mistake on my part! They could get very angry about my mistake, but they were very cool guys and they brought it back. I've tried this and it works fine. It's a great player, not worth the hands outstretched, and has a lot of cool features from Sony and other manufacturers like Netflix and Hulu, Revain, Vudu, etc., all of which work great. But the real gem is that it's online and plays ALL REGIONS!
