One more thing (thanx to |GeNiUs| for reminding me), new RPC-2 drives
will 
have no region code set. Without any region beeing set, those drives
will 
refuse to authenticate ANY encrypted DVD.
The linux libs will _not_ change or set the region on a drive.

A tool to query and set the region code can be found at:

Sorry für my last posting in german - I was too tired and forgot to
write in english ...

Now everything works fine. There was no regioncode set before. As i
discoverd the change regioncode menu in VDR I never thought that I have
to use an external tool.

Is regioncode changing limited ? Or can i swap as often as I like ...

Thanx
