burner does not affect the code- only what you set as open in your authoring program. that info is in the manual.

Dan,
As Noah pointed out in his less than friendly message, you set the Region Code in your authoring software. The US is Region 1.
That’s only part of the issue, however. We here in the US use the NTSC television system instead of PAL. So you would also need to transcode your program and author the disc as an NTSC disc.
Have fun!

Hi Rob with all due respect, I’ve written 13,000+ posts on the Cow. A simple pointer to a manual is often all that’s needed to actually teach someone something they need to know, rather than spoon feeding them a single bit of isolated information that simply fulfills an immediate need. So please don’t mistake my brevity for hostility and I’ll extend you the same courtesy.
Best,
