DVDs have region settings. An optical drive can accept up to 5 changes and then it is locked into the last region.


I have only played a single DVD from another region once. Even though I used VLC it still locked my optical drive to that region.


Are you sure the DVD you purchased is a standard television style DVD? DVD just refers to the nature of the optical disc, not the formatting of what is on it.
