Description

DVD drive region information can be inspected or changed when playback compatibility depends on region coding. This is useful for users troubleshooting physical DVD playback on drives that enforce region limits.

It is a low-level command-line hardware utility. Region changes on DVD drives may be limited by firmware and can become permanent after a small number of changes, so users should understand the drive policy before writing a new region.
