Question

Does anybody know if there is a remote hack for the above mentioned DVD player to make it multi region?
Or do I have to get it chipped?

This procedure may allow Region changing on this player from the Remote without hardware modification:

Make sure there is no disk in the tray

Unplug mains AC

On the front of the unit press and hold "Play" and "Open/Close"

While holding these keys plug in mains power

Release these keys and test appears on the display

Press "3D-Phonic"

Press "Menu" twice on the remote

The display should read 000 5858 use "Down" buttons to change "000" to "02e"

Change last 4 digits to the following

0000 for region free
0101 for Region 1
0202 for Region 2

Press "Enter" on the Remote

Press "Standby" and wait 5 seconds

Press "Standby" again and the player is now set to the region that you desire

I've used a hack for a Philips player from this site and it worked fine. Let me know if this one works

I certainly will do.
It's for my girlfriends sister and she will be trying it after 1pm today so I will post later if she can get her head round it.

Is there any hack on the ps2, without buying the region free disc?

I am sure there is no handset hack available for this model. I think you have to have it modded inside.

It involves reprogramming it inside or "chipping" it.
