Maybe the following excerpt from the OMS-HOWTO will help:

I think I have a region code problem with my drive
Run dmesg to see if you have a problem. You may see output like the
following:
ATAPI device hdc:
Error: Illegal request -- (Sense key=0x05)
System resource failure -- (asc=0x55, ascq=0x00)
Media region code is mismatched to logical unit -- (asc=0x6f, ascq=0x04)
The failed "Report Key" packet command was:
"a4 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0c 04 00 "
Get the regionset program from linuxtv.org use that to reset the region
on your dvd drive.
Remember: you can only do this 5 times or so on most drives, so dont
get carried away.
To compile, untar the file downloaded, and run:1. # gcc -c dvd_udf.c
2. # gcc -c regionset.c
3. # gcc -o regionset dvd_udf.o regionset.o
4. # ./regionset
If you have no region code set, you will see type: NONE as part of the
output, as well as drive
plays discs from region(s): with no number after it.
Set the code according to your region (see here for a map):
CODE REGIONS
1. USA & Canada
2. Europe & Japan
3. South East Asia
4. Latin America & Australia
5. Russia & Africa
6. (Peoples Republic of) China
7. Reserved
8. Special international venues (airplanes, cruise ships, etc.)
After you enter the region code, the program prompts you with a message
similiar to: New mask:
0xFFFFFFFE, correct? [y/n]. It is usually safe to just answer y here.

"GetTitleKey failed: Input/output error"
This may appear for other reasons, but one reason was because the region
code on the DVD drive
wasnt set at all (e.g. you have a brand new DVD drive and havent run
any Windows DVD
software). See above subsection for a fix.


Good Luck
Thomas
