Product

Unless otherwise stated the DVDs are region 4 and all blu rays are Region B or region free. If a DVD is region 1 or 2 it will be stated in the blurb and you will be required to have a multi region player to view it. Occassionally DVDs that are rated region free in the blurb will have a region 2 or 1 icon on the slip but have been tested and play fine on a standard NZ player. If you are not sure please use the contact page to ask any questions.

Region codes on DVDs and Blu-rays control distribution, specifying where they can be sold and played. Checking the region code ensures compatibility with your player, preventing playback issues.

Tip for Customers
Check the region code. Look for the region code in the blurb. For New Zealand, Region 4 is suitable for DVDs, and for Blu-rays, it's Region B. Region free will play too. If you aren't sure look up your player model online and you can confirm there.
