Rose, your dvd player has to be multi region or region free. Or, some laptops seem to be able to play dvds of any region.

What kind of player/model number do you have?

I have a Phillips player that I was able to convert to multi region-a Vf'er pointed out instructions online. It doesn't work for all dvd players, though.

Or you can get Any Dvd Slysoft software.

It is a bit pricey but I find it totally awsome and I would be lost without it.
It can remove copyright protection and you can make region free copies to play in any dvd player.

Sorry to hijack this thread. For those who purchase from Amazon UK, do you have to pay any duties on the shipments when they arrive. I love the look of the Europeans workouts on the youtube and would really like a dvd.

goldillocks- Thanks for posting about slysoft.com -they have a sale 20% off till Sunday. This was on my wishlist anyway

I've never had to pay duties on packages from Amazon.uk and I've ordered from them many times (mainly books).

Nope, no duties at all. I'm also a repeat Amazon.co.uk customer.

ETA - If you're ordering from a non-EU country, you don't have to pay VAT so the prices are actually a little less.
And you can get Karen Voight's Personal Best on DVD cheaply!: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Elle-Macpher...8922013&sr=1-1
Price (before shipping) comes out to £3.31 (US$5.30).

Normally there are duty fees for all shipments from the EU to non-EU countries and from the US to EU countries. But I think that duty fees depend on the valule of the goods. For Example here in Greece I do not pay any duty fees from Amazon UK as Greece and UK both in the EU. But when I order from the US I have to make sure that my order is not more than $100 otherwise I will have to pay customs fees. So I can buy from Amazon US anything up to $100 without having to pay customs fees.
