DVD's in the US are in NTSC and from over seas are in PAL you have to go under the settings on the DVD player and chsnge the format to NTSC if at all possible with that model
Hi, are you using a UK pal tv? Chances are you are watching a US region 1 dvd which is encoded in NTSC. This will play in 525 lines and black and white on a UK PAL tv. Does your DVD player have an NTSC playback to PAL tv swich? It would simply be labeled "PAL" and "NTSC" If not on the back then possibly in the menu. If you have the switch select NTSC and try again.
Hope this helps

will you check the video settings in the menu?
look for NTSC, PAL or other versions that is right for the tv.
If there is a Automatic setting better use it.
An NTSC dvd wont play the picture well on a PAL tv set.

Try downloading VLC media player (freeware). It will play a DVD without a special decoder needed. Computers don't really care about NTSC or PAL. If you want to convert for home DVD player try WinAVI or ConvertX to DVD, both will allow conversion to and from NTSC and PAL formats.
Hi, you have to delete de region coding on your DVD, by using a
computer (either a mac or PC, or linux) then you can play it. However,
if the format is not the same (PAL&NTSC) it's gonna be impossible :
for instance, if your PS3 is NTSC, you wont be able to playback PAL
content, however, I think it might be possible to the opposite for PAL
PS3 owners, since every PAL DVD player can read NTSC (but practically,
none of NTSC player read PAL ...) Sad indeed mate.
Its a pain in
the *** willing to try converting PAL to NTSC. You better forget it
.... However, if its just a region code issue, as I said first, you can
just backup it up deleting the CSS (it's illegal... whatever) and
burning the region-unlocked movie to a blank DVD and play it ^^
You need either an NTSC DVD recorder (keep in mind that the US has 110 voltage, while Australia does not), or a computer card that supports NTSC. Some video capture cards support both NTSC and PAL (often switchable). Choose good quality, and pay attention to video/sound sync - some bad quality cards loose sync. Once the tapes are transferred to DVD - and keep it native NTSC all the way, they can be played on virtually any PAL DVD player/TV combo. With an NTSC source, it's best NOT to convert to PAL, while with a PAL source in the US, you'd need to convert to NTSC or only show the DVD on a computer (where NTSC/PAL doesn't matter).
Pal And NTSC are diferent region codeing the try selecting the dvd in the ps3 and press triangle and to view the vob files and select one and see if it plays. But usally pal systems wont plat NTSC
