Sampo DVD-620
Multi-Region
Please note the following if you have a very new Sampo DVD player, note that this MAY or MAY NOT be relevant to the DVD-620: "Thanks to John M. for sending us a quick guide on how to get round the recent removal of the hidden menus on the Sampo DVD-320, DVD-360, DVD-520, DVD-560, DVD-K535 and DVD-K565 models. First you will need access to a CD-R drive, secondly visit http://www.dvdschmiede.de/update.htm where you can download the relevant CD images for both the new firmware and older which includes the menus. After this its simply a case of burning yourself two CD-ROMs. Insert the older firmware CD and downgrade your system to the earlier version with the hidden menus, then configure the system to bypass region checking and optionally Macrovision. Finally insert the new firmware CD and upgrade to the latest. Even though you will not be able to access the hidden menus, the settings you made from the earlier firmware will remain present. As for the bad news, according to John this doesn't work on the new Apex 600A with the N4 EPROM and the 4318 Video Drive."
