Can an American DVD be used in Spain?

Question

I stayed with a family in Spain last year and my host sisters birthday is coming up. I am planning on sending her a package with gifts and wanted to include a slideshow that I burned onto a DVD+R disc. Would she be able to use it in her DVD player or maybe even her computer? Thank you

Answer 1

Yeah, I think so. If is was an original DVD probably it wouldn't work, but a DVD+R surely will work, but I think that when you burn it you should see if there is an option to select a region or burn the DVD without region, but I'm not really sure of that.

Answer 2

I'm not sure about her computer, but I know she won't be able to view it on a regular DVD player. They're made for certain regions; I have a cousin in Italy, and in order to view DVDs that he sends us we had to purchase one that was compatible.

Answer 3

Well it depends, they wok on some DVD players but not others, most work in Australia.
