    What exacly do you mean by region free? Is the drive a region 1 and you want to play Region 2 discs? If so then AnyDVD does that.

    Or are you talking about burning region free dvds?

    creaky I'm searching for this also, it would be a lot more helpful if you indicated the relevant forum as n00bies wont know.
    I understand multiposting sucks and I agree but a quick link wouldnt hurt :)

    Sorry i did mean to actually give an answer to this one...

    The way i attack stuff like this is to find region-free firmware for the burner ie attack the problem at source.

    Here's a firmware page for this burner -
    http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2127 though it appears there's no Region Free (ie RPC-1) firmware for this drive... so you're back to using programs that do this. Another way to attack this (to avoid region-free hassles on standalone dvd players) is to use programs like DVD Shrink et al to make burnt movies have 'no region' - but for this to work on standalones the standalone usually has to be tweaked to be region-free
