Hi !

I think I have the solution for all of your problems, but I only can write down the region codefree solution here: I'll be able to install this region codefree kit which allows you also to play PAL discs: [Link: jvbdigital.com]

Unfortunately they do not offer a kit for the 985 but they do for 875 !
I'm also willing to buy one of these changers... for me it doesn't matter if it's a 300 or 400 disc changer!

If you are also interested in buing the 875... post a reply or mail me.
