    Well...I told them to sticky that post but they didn't listen to me...and now I can't find it. Anyway, I have a Thomson and the one good thing about it is that it plays DVD+R and +RW, also of course plays DVD-R but does not play any CDR or DVD-RW hope this helps you a little.

    does no one know how to test what it plays BEFORE buying a mod chip? or is it impossible?
