Player is designed and manufactured for compatibility with region management information that is encoded on most Blu-ray disc recordings and DVD recordings:
BDT 3 units are designed only for playback of discs with Blu-Ray disc Region code A and DVD Region code 1 information, or for discs that do not contain any Region code information.
BDT 30 units are designed only for playback of discs with Blu-ray disc Region code B and DVD Region code 2 information, or for discs that do not contain Region code information.
If there is a Region code on a disc other than the one your BDT player is designed for, it will not play in your BDT player.
