Will region 1 DVDs work on my New Zealand DVD player?

Question

I am buying DVDs off amazon.com and their warning when I was placing my order worried me. Please help

"Please note: Your order contains at least one Region 1 (Canada and U.S.) encoded DVD. Region 1 DVDs might not play in DVD players sold in the country where this order is being shipped. Please also note that some Region 1 DVDs contain a Regional Coding Enhancement. Some of our international customers have had problems playing these enhanced discs on their “region-free” DVD players."

Answer 1

You need to have either US (ZONE 1) or region-free dvd player to play Region 1 movies.  I spend a lot of time in Europe and watch my US DVDs on my Pioneer region-free player - never a problem.
