Change Regions from Pal to NTFC???

Hey guys,

My girlfriend and I have DVD's that are rare and only produced in the PAL/UK format. Is there a good piece of software that will convert these so we can watch?

Thanks!

aren't DVD looked by region codes?
UK should be region 2 I believe, and USA is region 1.
AnyDVD will remove the region code checker to play DVDs. I watch Japanese DVD which are also region 2. I know there are also a couple of other programs as well

are these to be watched on your standalone dvd player?
if so,there's likely to be a hack for your player.
with mine,the drawer needs to be open and then input 4 digits,
this then takes you to the region page,
then select region free.

dont know if that helps any.

If you are still curious about this, I actually wrote a tutorial for converting from PAL > NTSC (or vice versa) on my blog:

I would just copy & paste, but I have screenshots on the blog post that will be helpful. You need to rip the DVD to your hard drive for this to work; I didn't cover those steps in my tut, so if you need help with that, just let me know.

Well the simple method would be to either fly to UK or buy a TV from there
