Pal & Ntsc

**DigitHAL9000** · 02-04-2004, 03:38 PM

I have no problems burning DVDs, but I found I can' t burn some because some of my videos are in PAL format and others are in NTSC.
How can I find out which ones are PAL and which ones are NTSC?
Is there a program or am I too dumb to find out?
Is there any way to easily change the format?
Thank you anyone.

mate because its kind of irrelevant pal/ntsc when it comes to burning and generaly on a pc.The only time they realy come in to play is playing them at home.And 99% of pal dvdplayers play both.But you could check the properties throught the player when you play a dvd.

:

unfortunately it' s not as you say:

1) I got an Apple Mac G5 with his super-drive (so it' s called because reads and writes both CDs & DVDs +/-R)

2) it happened I wanted to create a DVD with lots of music videos (there was space for about 40) so I choose the video DVD option and drag/dropped my files. When I started recording, a window popped out telling me It wasn' t possible to write on the same DVD PAL and NTSC files (only PAL or only NTSC).

this is the reason why I' m asking: there is a way to know if a file is PAL or NTSC?
is there a way to convert it?

It is as i said actually mate.

1 dont make any difference

2 you wasnt clear about on the same disc.

Its still the same as i said in my first reply mate,just watch the video then look at the properties, or right click properties may tell you..Or open it in an encoding program
