Why did I run out of region code changes for Blu-ray Disc playback?

The region code change limt of five times is associated to your BD/DVD drive, not by CyberLink PowerDVD. BD/DVD drives sold in a specific geographical region are designed to play only discs authorized by the content provider for that region. This is intended to permit content providers (motion picture studios, etc.) the ability to support product differences in content, price, release date, etc., by region. CyberLink PowerDVD serves as an interface through which users can tell their BD/DVD device to change its region code.  Once the change reaches BD/DVD’s allowed limitation, five times in this case, the BD/DVD device forbids end users from changing the region code again.

If you reach the limit, you may contact your BD/DVD drive manufacturer to unlock it. We do not have the right to unlock or add the change limit for you. We apologize for your inconvenience.
