Asked about “I've a US Region 1 DVD player. Can I play PAL DVDs? on QueryCAT”

PAL DVDs playing on NTSC equipment.

I have a non-commercial DVD+RW of my students' work while teaching in Jordan. It's obviously a PAL signal. It plays fine on my computer but will not play on US Panasonic DVD burner. I brought home a small PAL DVD player but the picture rolls and is in black and white on my Sony Trinitron. This means, I believe, I need a TV set switchable from NTSC to PAL. I don't think such an animal is manufactured. Am I right?

Topics:

dvd, dvds, play, player, region, pal

About the TV Standard, usually NTSC is 30 fps. It's used in USA, Canada and Japan. PAL is 25 fps and it's used in Europe and Asia.

I don't know the TV set withchable whether can convert the TV standard from NTSC to PAL.But I know there is DVD burn program which can convert TV standard from NTSC to PAL or from PAL to NTSC.It works well for me.Wish it also can help you!
