Taken from a site selling DVD's:

Please Note: Regional Coding Enhancement (RCE) has recently been added by Warner and Columbia to certain Region 1 DVD’s. RCE will prevent the DVD from playing on some “Multi-Region” DVD players. If you are in any doubt that your player may not be able to play RCE DVD’s, we recommend that you do not order this title, as we are unable to accept returned RCE DVD’s.

I only watch DVD's on my PC. It allows me to change the region 5 times before it locks, however, I can reset the counter, effectively giving me a multi-region DVD player. As far as I understand it, I should therefore be able to watch this DVD on my player, yes? If anyone knows either way can you let me know. Don't wanna go spending money on a DVD I can't watch or return!

Yes you should be able to play a RCE movie if your PC DVD is physically set to that region. I can play RCE movies throught my PC as my actual DVD drive is set to region 1.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
