Okay so I've just tested it. I took a DVD that was in PAL format and ripped it, when I burn it to another disc It now doesn't have any region protection at all so I guess the readers just totally remove it, so you probably don't even need to add a region.

I only have a PS5 to test it on and it worked okay on the PS5 I don't know about random crappy DVD players you got from the supermarket they might not work.

Also that was a DVD not a Blu-ray because I have literally no idea how you would even burn blu-rays, is it even a thing, regardless I don't think I can do it.
