I received my Multi-region DVD player yesterday so I am selling my Xbox DVD playback kit.
My T2 UE works aswell, both discs
My Daredevil DVD (both of them) runs fine, as did both Terminator and Terminator 2.

the only incompatibility issue I have is with the none-multi-region-ness.
in this day and age when you can pick up a multi-region DVD player for as little as £50, I EXPECT microsofts little bundle of joy to accept my Region 1 DVD.
Even if they released a DVD Region X thingy, that would be acceptable.
I bought stephen Kings 'the stand' off e-bay about 3 months ago, R1. As my PS2 died around the same time, I have not yet watched it.
c'mon microsoft, pull your finger outta yer ass and give us what we want
