Thanks for all that, seems like a workaround. I'll try vlc. Interesting what you say about the region being set on 6 - this is a brand new laptop, I bought it 2 weeks ago and the first dvd I inserted was region 2. That would seem to mean that my laptop wasn't quite new after all and someone's...

Thanks. Problem is, of course, that since I travel I need to be able to watch dvds on my laptop. Carrying region-free players or several laptops isn't really an option :) I'll look at VLC, although I found it very buggy on 10.3. The Apple link is interesting. A couple of things - they say...
