Please note that, some players do not display "success" when hacked.
The infrared service codes required to make the update are available on the Internet. Unfortunately, not many people have an appropriate device to enter the codes into. You basically need a programmable remote (Philips Pronto, One-For-All) or a PDA (Palm, iPAQ) with suitable software.
This guide shows you how to make the update with a regular PC equipped with an IRDA port.

1. Download the winsamp -package from Blank Franks site.
   This innovative piece of software allows you to send standard home electronics IR signals using a PC IRDA port.
2. Extract the package onto a bootable DOS floppy disk.
3. Save the following code into a file named "REMOTE.TXT" and place it in the same directory as the package above.

6. Make sure your DVD player is in standby mode and your IRDA port is within range
7. Run the IR codes from 1 to 5 by pressing Enter on each corresponding button
8. Your DVD player should start up and display the text "SUCCESS"
9. Repeat step 7. Your player should return to standby mode.
   Your player is now multi-region.
