| Can american radio on a cd player be changed to UK radio Just come back from america and purchased a jvc avx2 cd player there are two things wrong with it. With it being american the radio channel are all odd number e.g. 102.1 or 102.3 so I can't get some of the radio stations I want. Also the dvd player only plays american dvds and not UK dvds does anyone know if this can be solved. Thanks  |

| JVC is notorius for putting unlock codes in the regular DVD players (american living in Germany). However, you may have to do some serious googling to find out how. |

| Hey, I am sorry to say that you might be out of luck. DVD players and tvs use in America use NTSC and everything in Europe use PAL. Its a compatiblity issue that can't really be gotten around. I am sorry but I think you might be out of luck. Medic |

 region code Some home dvd players have a region code that can be changed ( from region 1 to 2 and back). but i'm not sure if this applies to car dvd players?  there's usually something in the menu where you can change the region. |

| Medic, This is not a problem with DVD players as the output is raw video feed that this then converted to the format needed by the TV. I have a region free dvd player at my home that plays PAL dvds and shows them on a NTSC tv with no problems (so I can watch German DVDs on my American TV). It is just a matter of "unlocking" or changing the device. Did you know that most DVD players are region free until you use them. Once you play a certain region over a specified amount of times (usually 5), it then locks the device to that region code. |
