Firmware upgrade

Update the firmware on the DVD player- through a CD disk, it doesn't like the DVD disk for some reason, but once I burned it to a CD, it worked. This is silly, the drive can read CD and DVD, why not read DVD for firmware upgrade? I have a DVD +RW for this sort of things, it's silly to use a 700MB CD for just a 1.5MB firmware file....

Also updated the region code :-), with help found on Amazon.com

1. Turn on the unit
2. Open the loading tray
3. Press the "Setup" button on the remote
4. Navigate to the "Preferences" page using the right arrow key
6. Press the down arrow once to enter the Preference page
5. Enter 138931 on the remote
6. You will now see the current region code displayed
7. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to select the region required or "0" for all regions
8. Press the "Play" button on the remote

I don't have any DVDs other than region 1s, but good to know that when I need it, the player can handle it :-)
