Music will play just fine. If you post the make and model of your TV and DVD player, you may just find that they are capable of playing US DVDs

What about this? It might work. Though probably the only way to know if it works, is to buy an American DVD...

Most modern video players have NTSC (American format) playback - check your manual for info.

And if you don't have a multi-region DVD player, buy one (they are so cheap) or see if there is a multi-region hack for it.

This forum reports that the 45 (probably the predecessor to yours) works region free from the box, so should be able to play the dvds, now how old is your tv, this also needs to have PAL60 compatibility.

US PS2 Discs won't work in the UK, it's the PAL/NTSC thing again.

I couldn't find anything on the 46, just the 45. :shrug:

...and strangely enough that was the last site that I looked at ;)
