  Region 1 DVD news : RCE: Perfect Storm in a tea cup
You may have noticed a kerfuffle developing in recent days concerning a Regional Coding Enhanced system being developed by Warners for use on some of its new R1 titles, such as The Perfect Storm. But as we at HCC suspected from the start, this is now looking like it was largely a fuss about nothing - or at least, very little.

RCE works like this. When an RCE-equipped disc is put into a player, it asks the player if it’s a Region 1 player, then it asks it if it’s a region 2 player,and if the answer to both questions is yes, the disc won’t play. So if your DVD player has had its regional coding address system removed, or can only be set to all-region (R0) playback, you’re jiggered. But if your multi-region player is one where you can adjust the region to be just R1, you’ll be fine. Or if its multi-region modification is of the Techtronics autoswitching type where the player tells the disc whatever it wants to hear, you should also be fine. Certainly tests by the DVD Debate on The Perfect Storm using a Techtronics modified player revealed no problems.

So in fact RCE does nothing more sinister than protection systems used for ages by the likes of Disney and MGM. And all it means in practical terms is that people whose hacked players can’t choose what region they need to be and so can’t play Disney or MGM discs will now have to add new Warners films to the list of titles they can’t buy. The rest of you can chill out - for the time being at least...
