I have two DVD I purchased from the UK and I have the APEX dvd player and one plays on the APEX fine but it will not play on the JVC DVD player. The other DVD will not play on neither one of the DVD players. After I put the DVD in the message comes up with "Incorrect Region Code"? Help! Thanks

Most DVD players are set to a certain Region for piracy prevention..but it canbe "fixed" I forgot the web site and Im away from home..but do a web search for removing region codes from your dvd player. On my Bose Lifestyle 38 it was just a matter of pushing some buttons on the remote in a certain order. Think JVC was similar. The website was a .uk website and had instructions for just about every DVD player out there.

The only way I know is to copy and burn the DVD onto DVDR without a Region specified. Though it is duplicating your movie, at least you can play it. You need the softwares: 'DVD Region Free,' and 'DVD Shrink.' I found these online for free (try download.com). DVD Region Free will allow your PC to play any region DVD, whilst DVD Shrink will allow you to create a backup copy of the DVD. Make sure to check the 'no region' checkbox, and you should be fine.

Every DVD has a country code and all the DVD players have a code too and it only works when both codes are the same...but you can buy a multiple-code dvd player, then it will play all the dvds

Unfortunately I don't think you can. For copyright reasons, I believe, DVDs are coded by region. The US is part of Region 1. I believe the UK is part of Region 2. the DVDs will NOT play in other players because they are designed not to.
In future, look for Region 0 DVDs, which I believe are playable in all regions.

have it copied (by you or a friend but not by a professional- it's prohibited) but use region I setting (default setting in US dvd burning optical device).
the jvc player is fixed in reading region I only. the other dvd disc was recorded with an ALL region code (but not a guarantee it does work with all the dvd players).
remember many/almost all states prohibit copying except for personal use only. check with the local code first.
if there's a will, there's a way!
hope you get what i mean

a video_ts file is just all the decoded files from a dvd. it's kind of like a disc image except it's unusable until you burn it to dvd. burning software like nero, roxio, or toast have settings to deal specifically with video_ts files. all the files from a dvd should be in one folder titled 'video_ts'. just set your burning software to video_ts and drag the folder into the program window and you'll be off. read the direction for whichever program you buy/download. there should be a section on how to make and/or use video_ts files.
