Not quite - the 5th change is permanent (perhaps that's what you meant). Between changes you can play as many DVDs as you like for that region. I agree it's frustrating, but apparently it's a condition imposed on Apple by the film companies who wish to tightly control the timing of release of films in different regions. of course when, as you say, some films - particularly older ones - are never released in a particular region it becomes annoying.

Jun 17, 2016 7:37 PM in response to MeMiriby dbertuca,OK but what happens when you only changed regions once?
i only changed the region once and now i can't change back. how can i fix this? i've played region 1 for years and the one time i play a region 2 disc, should not stop me from returning to the region 1 setting. now my drive won't let me go back to Region 1 setting.
I get an error message # 70001.
Does anyone have a solution?
