Can I play a region 1 DVD in my region 2 dvd recorder?

I would like to play a region 1 dvd on my region 2 dvd rewriter drive.
My drive is a Lite-On DVDRW S0HW-012S rewriter.

I have mounted the disk, but when I try to play the video files, I get errors
as follows:

mplayer *.vob

Playing vts_01_0.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_01_1.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_01_2.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_01_3.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_01_4.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_02_0.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_02_1.vob.
Seek failed

Playing vts_03_1.vob.
Seek failed

Presumably this is due to the region code not matching the region of my drive
(I am in the United Kingdom.)

Is there a way to play this disk?

Mark.
