firmware loaded. Try the Samsung V-5000 setup, it MAY work.
Converting this player to Multi-Region (older firmware):
If you have:
Firmware version 5.02C (or earlier), or 5.02Ea through 5.02Ed: use REPEAT, 3, 8, 7, 6, 7
Firmware version 5.02Ee (or later): use REPEAT, 5, 7, 5, 3, 8
Firmware version 5.02Da through 5.02E: you can't use this setup until you've upgraded your firmware to version
5.02Ee.
The 611 may not have Dolby 5.1 output after applying the setup, so you may need to change the PCM format to
Dolby5.1 again. The sound mode for digital (PCM or bitstream) can be set in the Setup mode, under Sound Setup.
You can reset the region setting from 9 to a specific region by setting PCM to bitstream again and DTS to ON.
The player may halt on FBI warnings...If the player does freeze at the FBI warnings, Press Forward Search x2 or
faster.
Note: Earlier firmware versions will not play The Matrix or There’s Something About Mary but can be upgraded,
firmware update does not remove setup. This setup also removes Macrovision.
