About DVD Region 2

DVD
 
Nearly all DVD home video products are protected against unauthorized
distribution outside their licensed territories by what is known as region encoding.

Region 2 DVDs are encoded discs that are playable only on DVD players
manufactured for use in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Sweden, Italy,
the Netherlands, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Austria and other western European
countries, Greece, Turkey, Egypt and other the Middle Eastern countries, Japan,
Greenland, Iceland, and certain South African countries. Depending on the
country’s dominant television format, Region 2 DVDs are either PAL or NTSC
format discs.

Region 2 NTSC or PAL discs will not play on most American DVD players. Many
Region 2 DVD players are manufactured to play both PAL and NTSC discs,
regardless of region encoding (consult your player’s manual).
