The problem is mostly frame rate, and to a lesser extent image size. If you have a multi-region DVD player you might or might not have the ability to convert PAL to NTSC or vice versa. Many new TVs can accept both PAL and NTSC signals by making a change in the menu. Like the man said, this is a great place to find codes to unlock the regions on your current player. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks Here is a good place to find a multi-region player, and they also sell them with built in PAL-NTSC converters. http://www.hkflix.com/hardware/ Excellent way to play allyour orb DVDs. :) "There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality."
