Huh I Converted PAL DVD to NTSC DVD on my computer easily
Maybe someone can explain what doesn't seem to be explained- at least not on another board where I got total gobblygook. My Harmon Kardon 31 DVD player plays NTSC DVD's only. As I also have a multi system player, I ordered a PAL Box set of DVDs from a 70's UK TV series that's not available here & I don't think was ever shown in the US. Anyway, just for the heck of it, I tried to play the PAL DVDs on my Harmon Kardon 31 player & of course they wouldn't play. Then out of curiosity, using DVD Shrink & a supplementry commercial program available online called DVD Fab which removes regions & other things, I proceeded to make a DVD backup of my PAL DVD. I then played it on my Harmon Kardon 31 player & it played perfectly. I'm concluding that it converted PAL into NTSC but these people in the other board say no, it just made a PAL Region free DVD. Well as far as I understand, correct me if I'm wrong someone, if your player is NTSC, you still can't play a PAL DVD on it even if it is region free. Clarifications anyone?
