Region Free Hack for LG DV340 DVD Player (and others)

As I’m currently in South Africa visiting my family, I bought a DVD player as a prezzie for mom.

LG DV340 Region free hack for the model I bought at Game is below:

1, power on the player with no disk in the drive
2, pres pause on the remote
3, enter “314159″ on the remote
4, enter “0″ on the remote (0 = all regions, 1 = region 1 etc)
5, press pause on the remote
6, power the player off and then back.

Hopefully this helps someone else!

Apparently it also works for most other LG players, eg the DV440 DNU889 (as confirmed in the comments)
