Having problems playin NTSC DVD on my PAL DVD player and my PC?

Question

I've got a couple of what i assume are NTSC DVD's (As they were recorded on that side of the world), that for some reason wont play on either my PC or my PAL DVD player.

The DVD's were made using a DVD recorded to record straight from tv to DVD.

What can i do to view these DVD's?

Answer 1

The fact that they are NTSC shouldn't be a problem; most players have no problem playing either format.

However, the fact that they are recorded DVDs may be a problem, since older players don't like some recordable media.

But your computer should be able to view them, assuming the drive can read them.  Have you tried a program called VLC (which can play just about anything)?
