DVDs and DVD drives contain regional codes that help control DVD title exports and 
help reduce illegal disc distribution. To be able to play a DVD, the disc’s regional code 
and your DVD drive’s regional code must match.
The regional code on your DVD drive is determined by your computer’s delivery 
address. The regional code for the United States and Canada is 1. The regional code 
for Mexico is 4. Your DVD drive’s regional code must match the regional code for the 
disc. The regional code for the disc is on the disc, disc documentation, or disc 
packaging.
If the DVD movie does not play, the disc’s regional code and your DVD drive’s regional 
code may not match.
