Above.

I have the complete series boxset of the Flintstones which I bought from Amazon a few weeks back, however, it's R1 and obviously UK is R2, I thought the Xbox Series X was supposed to be multiregion?

I am aware of Google.

If I'm honest I have no clue what difference there is between R1 and R2 other than regionality between US and UK. You got to remember that depending on the sort of console you have (because digital only consoles exist now) if you have somewhere to put your disk in I would give it a go anyway. Worst case scenario it spits it back out or nothing happens and you just have to eject it

What gets me though, is that if Amazon knows that most UK customers can't play R1 DVDs/Blu Rays, why sell them on the UK website when the UK has R2?! Doesn't make sense?!
