What are DVD region codes and how do they affect DVD playability?

The region code on a DVD tells you which area of the world the DVD release is intended to cover. For example, the US and Canada are DVD Region 1, while China is DVD Region 6. You need a DVD player compatible with Region 6 discs to play Region 6 designated DVDs, for example. If a DVD is designated as a Region 0 or Region AL disc, the DVD can be played worldwide. Look for a small globe icon with a number or numbers on it to determine the compatible region of a DVD player or disc.

How can I play phase alternating line (PAL) DVDs on a National Television System Committee (NTSC) player and vice versa if I'm in another country or region?

You need a PAL-to-NTSC converter or an NTSC-to-PAL converter to see the content on the DVD. That's because each of the two color-encoding systems will load screen images at a different rate. Bring your own compatible player and power converter along when you travel to ensure you can play your favorite DVDs.

Will a 1080p HD TV show 4K DVDs?

You can show ultra HD videos on an HD TV. Your DVD player automatically converts the video to a 1080p format.
