I did a search before posting this and didn't find anything...

I have a Denon dvd-2200 and it is capable of playing both PAL and NTSC but I cannot find any information about whether or not it can play multi-regional DVDs.

A friend recently introduced to me Region 3 (asian) limited edition special packaging DVDs and I ordered some simply because they are/look to be incredibly beautiful editions of some wonderful movies (ie. Alien Head "Alien Quadrilogy" DVD set) but the movies are all region 2 or 3 and I need to know if my player will support them. Anyone know or know where I can find the information. Denon's website doesn't seemt to say anything about regional players???

Thanks!!!

    BTW - I had the same issue with toshiba, they don't offer any region free players here in the U.S. so I went with jvb. You can do the install yourself if you are inclined to do so...
