I play dvds right out of the box when I upgrade or get a new mac with no
need to select a region.

good point raised.
for anyone who of course has either upgraded to OS X 10.5 or has a
new mac and has not used the DVD player just yet. please be aware that
you will get this prompt asking for a region code change . for most
E.U areas it is Region 2 format. to other areas. please follow the
stated region codes. however it is usually region 2 or 1
hope this information helps out
other reference. depending on the condition of the dvd or the way in
which the DVD has been designed to include an application layer in the
dvd you may find 2 image layers mounted. 1 layer runs the DVD and the
other if configured by the manufacturer of the dvd may contain a media
application. also check your DVD and CD settings in system
preferences if an application has changed the way media is handled
