DVD Player Error -70001

Hi everybody
I was trying to play a DVD I bought today. In order to do that, my Superdrive's regional code had to be changed. When I tried to change zones (last chance to do that, I had already switched it 4 times so this was the last change) an error window popped up. The error said

"There has been a problem trying to change the unit's regional code. Error: -70001".

Please help!

Thanks in advance.

Insert a DVD which is set to play in only one region; some DVDs will work in some but not all regions, and if you try to change the region with one of those when there's only one change left on the drive, you will get that error message.

You mean trying to play a "zone 4 only" DVD instead of one meant for multiple zones (i.e zone 3, 4 and 6 like the one I was trying to play when the error showed up)?
It'll be hard to find one of those around here, but I'll give it a try.

Thank you, I'll let you know if this works as soon as I find a zone 4 disk 🙂
