Tribe DVD's?


Hey everyone,
I really want to buy the Tribe DVD's from amazon.co.uk, and for whatever reason, only about half the dvds (seasons 1 and 4) and the other 3 seasons are region 2. Has anyone bought the other region 2 dvds and gotten them to work?


Thanks

I just watch them on my computer. I've been meaning to buy a region-free dvd player for years but the computer is just as effective.

I have all 5 seasons that I got from amazon.co.uk. They all play just fine in my computers DVD ROM player. I also have a region-free DVD player and they all play just fine in it too. I have over 20 DVD’s from TV shows from New Zealand and Australia and have never had a region 2 DVD that would not play in either my computer or region-free player.

I hope this puts your fears to rest.

FYI I live in USA

Is that for computers in general?
I feel that it might be different for Macs, but if either of you have a mac then maybe I could give it a try...this is definitely one of my favorite shows.

I have two computers. One laptop and one desktop, both are PC's (Compaq/HP). You may need to do a Google search to see if Mac's will play them.

Sorry I could not help you out.

So Tribe DVDs should play on my computer whatever the region. That is so awesome

Can I borrow your pen?

All I can say is it works on my computer. I have a Compaq Presario laptop V2405US (Wal-Mart’s cheapest a few years back). I am running XP Home SP3 and have the latest version of Windows Media Player. I first open Windows Media Player then put in the DVD disc. I have never had to make any software changes to my computer or my DVD ROM drive to play any DVDs USA or abroad. Just make sure you have the latest version of Windows Media Player and have it opened before you insert you DVD.

I live in the USA and have never had any problems playing The Tribe, Spellbinder 1 & 2, Ocean Girl 1 & 2, Thunderstone, Skytrackers and a few more I cant think of off the top of my head.

There’s no way I can guarantee your computer will do the same.

Just in case you were wandering all my DVDs are 100% legitimate studio releases. I buy them online at either http://www.amazon.co.uk in the UK or http://chaos.com/ in Australia. Both of these online stores have no problem shipping to USA customers. Chaos will even let you pay using Paypal. I have never had a problem ordering from either company.

I hope this answers some of your questions and I wish you the best of luck playing these DVDs in your computer.
