British readers >>>All in Wonder NTSC encoded DVD playback o |
|
|
I have a DVD that I made with my All in Wonder 9600 PRO from a US
NTSC TV broadcast recording. After recording it in mpeg-2, I edited
it, and then used TMPEnc 3.0 to encode it to NTSC mpeg-2. Then I
burned a DVD.
I know there is no "region" for home made DVDs, but I am concerned
about the TV format. Does it matter that the mpeg-2 file was encoded
in NTFS. Are all DVDs the same in this regard. Will such a DVD play
OK on my British friends DVD and PAL TV? Or should I go back and
re-encode in PAL.
Thanks! |

I think they'll playback fine.
Region 2 for instance is Western Europe, South Africa and Japan. Japan has
NTSC region 2 discs and the other two territories use PAL. However, they
should playback fine as long as the TV has 60 Hz ( Most PAL/I TVs these
days support both 50 Hz and 60 Hz PAL ). There is no NTSC or PAL encoding in
an MPEG file, they merely have different resolutions and framerates which
correspond to NTSC (720x480, 60 Hz ) and PAL ( 720x576, 50 Hz ) standards. I
think as long as yer British buddies have TVs which support 60 Hz PAL it
should work fine.

modern tv's can handle both formats, only on older tv's are you get a black
and white image (means the tv can't handle ntsc)
so no problem i'd say |

Even if the TV cannot cannot handle 60 Hz, many DVD players, especially the
cheap Taiwanese ones, :-) can output to both NTSC and PAL.
However, for guaranteed compatibility, have TMPEnc encode your videos to
conform to the PAL standard. The main difference is the MPEG2 video file
framerate (25 fps instead of 29.97 fps).

It might be quicker to find out if your friends TV can handle NTSC. If it
can't the picture will be black and white.
As First of One says the vast majority of DVD players do both formats.
If you need to edit and encode anyway, you may as well choose PAL.
