any US help for PAL dvd playing problem: a godfather 1CD asreward

oh lord

i fell on a hassling US girl who sent me 20 mails before finishing our deal & now she got her oasis dvd, she has a PAL playing problem
is there a US geek or technically easy to explain her how she can solve this?
(unfortunately she bought Apocalypse sound DVD #2 at the very beginning when all the Apocalypse DVD's were not ALL NTSC transcoded, but the DVD is code free (0))

i will reward with one godfather 1CD if the problem is solved

thx

G

Here is a method i use first you need to put the files on the computer then go in to ifoedit

Then Open the Video_Vts File From The Folder then you will see this now this method works both ways i used ntsc in this one

and then click were it says ntsc twice then you should see this

then convert it to what ever you want and then when you are done and want to save it this is what it will say

that's my method it has worked every time in converting pal to ntsc

Hi Godxofxrock9
After trying your method several times it still doesn't work.
I tried your method with IFO Edit by saving PAL converted to NTSC successfully.
However when i test the converted dvd with GSpot it still says that it's PAL format.

If i go back to IFO edit and recheck the file it shows that the conversion was done successfully.

It is still PAL, all ifoedit is doing is changing the .ifo file.
It's more like a header really, so it tells the player that it is NTSC but the video is still PAL because no actual conversion has been done.

Thanks JimmyShelter, makes sense.

By the way i don't like to convert from PAL to NTSC or NTSC to PAl because i don't believe it keeps the quality good.

The reason i tried it was to see if it really worked and for a learning experience.

Tell her to buy the cheapest DVD player she can.........they usually play everything and don't care about the video format. People get confused over the PAL/NTSC issue.

I've come across this a few times recently, like you I assumed that ALL players played both nowadays.
But we are in Europe, it seems that US players assume that everybody uses NTSC.

Forgot to mention that this method you use to change PAL to NTSC or vice-versa is ok because like you said you are not converting the whole movie and therefor if you really have no choice for watching it this is best way.

Can come handy at times and for others who i may advice.

So thanks JimmyShelter once again.

This is useful for me, as my old Sony dvd player (DVP-DS575P) only plays NTSC dvds.

sorry, but this girl NEVER wanted to understand anything & turned me back the dvd (i got recently) with all the care i asked her (as i shipped it) & it costed her $25.70 ...paid on the padded letter...(registered+maybe receipt proof?)

i can't fight against these closed doors of unperception...or maybe there is something i did not understand: she is handicapped & do not want to bother herself with technical problems...
anyway it was even better to resell it there or she works at USPS?
