Try IFOEdit, I've found it more reliable than DVDInfo pro when it comes to reporting multiple regions correctly.

I've no idea if it will actually help where it's reporting it as n/a, but it's worth a try.

I recall one of the Resident Evil releases seemed to be reluctant to provide a disc id for many people, although there is (or was) one in the database.

It may be a drive issue, my laptop drive is crap as it's region locked (defeats region free software and no firmware update) and refuses to recognise Trinity Blood vol 6 at all, even though it plays perfectly well in my standalone players.

Don't let the fella in your avatar do this for you. You need to make sure the DVD label is facing up. I know the shiny side looks pretty, but it won't work properly ...

Using IfoEdit
                  Title Set 4:
    VTS_4 Video: MPEG-2 720x480 (NTSC) (NTSC 525/60) (16:9) (letterboxed)
    VTS_4 Audio 1:      English              (DTS      ) 6ch 48Kbps DRC normal
    VTS_4 Audio 2:      English              (Dolby AC-3) 6ch 48Kbps DRC normal
    VTS_4 Audio 3:      English              (Dolby AC-3) 2ch 48Kbps DRC normal
    VTS_4 Audio 4:      Français            (Dolby AC-3) 2ch 48Kbps DRC normal

    VTS_4 SubPicture 2: Español              (2-bit rle )

Can anyone who has this DVD (0 24543 01085 2) Check if you can get the French subtitles to work they are not in the DVD menu's but when i use the subtitle button on my DVD's remote i am getting French as a choice but no subtitles are appearing on screen.

My guess is that what you are seeing is what we refer to as forced subtitles, these are frequently used and a PITA, they are not throughout the entire film, but are used to, for example provide a translation for a Road Sign that is shown on screen.
