The only way to change the region is to alter the image you rip. In Win32 land you can do this with, say, DVDShrink. BTW most DVD players can be unlocked with the exception of major brands lik= e=20 Sony (probably because they sell DVDs as well as players). So, to repeat.. It ISN'T cdrecord you want to screw around with, it's the=20 actual ISO!
