Answer 2

Actually you can play a PAL DVD on a NTSC TV provided you have a DVD player with a built-in converter. Most China-made DVD player will have such converter (except the cheapest ones). The converter can convert PAL to NTSC and vice versa.

How to know if there is a built-in converter?

1. Look at the remote control, if you see a button labelled P/N, you are likely having one. Pressing P/N button will change the output video system between PAL and NTSC.

2. Stop playing any disc, press the Setup button, select the video output or TV page. See if you can find a page with 3 choices: "Auto", "PAL" and "NTSC". If you can find such page, you have the converter.

When "Auto" is selected, the output will be PAL or NTSC depends on your DVD or VCD (select this only if you have a Multi-system TV, otherwise you cannot play disc of the other system). If you have a NTSC TV, set it to "NTSC". If you have a PAL TV, set it to "PAL". In the last two cases, the output will not change despite the system of the disc being played.

With the flooding China-made DVD players in the market, you can get a good one for less than US$50 (just look it up or try it out before buying). This will save you troubles of converting DVD in the future.

Certain DVD players in the US you can find a code that you enter on the remote to make it region free. Or you can find a firmware update to make it region free.

Also certain DVD ROM players on your PC you can change it to PAL format in the properties option, warning you can only do this change between NTSC and PAL up to 5 times i think, although i think there is a hack to make that unlimited.

You could change your PC's DVD Rom to PAL, get some software like DVD-Shrink, DVD-Shrink can rip a movie and set the region to region free when you are ready to burn it. Once you have ripped it and burnt it you can change your PC's DVD rom back to NTSC.

Or you can purchase a region free DVD recorder.
