Setting Region Code for Yamaha DV-C6760 and/or Sony RDR-GX355

I bought a DVD from Amazon.uk.com. It's label as Region "0" but won't play
on my DVD player that's labeled for playing "1" and "ALL". Any information
on the code to use to allow this to happen will be greatly appreciated. Or,
direct me to where I can get this information.

TIA

JB

**What's the video format of the DVD? PAL or NTSC? If the DVD is in
the PAL format, the player might not be able to convert the PAL to
NTSC. Go to this site to look up your players, I think you can change
the region on your Yamaha:

The DVD plays just fine on my computer. It just doesn't play on any of my 3
DVD players hooked up to my TVs.
