I have a DVD that was given to me that will not play on my Sony DVD player hooked to my TV set. It seems I can play it on my PC if I start region free.

Anyone know how to re-burn my DVD so it will play on my Sony DVD player??

Decrypter, Shrink & AnyDVD will remove the region code to play it in a stand alone however if it is PAL and you have NTSC you will need to convert it.

Thanks Binkie7, I went the decryptor and Shrink route which always worked for me before and the Sony says it is an 'area' thing but must not be. Do you know how I can find if it is in PAL or NTSC format before I waste more DVD burning and testing??

If you player is telling you it's an area thing - it's more than likely PAL.
Here's another link where someone else had this problem and what they used to convert it.
