General Comments

I purchased an Alba 108 from Argos in Dublin for the ridiculously cheap price of 129 euro. To play VCDs, while the disc is spinning press GOTO and enter 0000. The VCD will begin to play. I've heard it's multi region out of the box but my manual claims it will only play region 2. The picture is fine and it sounds great through my sound system. If it is actually multi-region then it's one hell of a bargain!

    Any further info Eric on whether your Alba 108 is multi-region and macrovision hackable? I've read that Argos are now supplying the 108xi instead and that this is a different machine. Is yours the 108? And finally, anyone have any info on the Alba 109? The Blanchardstown Argos branch is displaying the 109 but the catalogue still says 108.

    The Alba DVD 108 player is indeed multi-region out of the box. No hack codes or any other such nonsense required.
