Multi-region DVD player output question
ChadTower:
Once more... regions are not related to formats. They are simply coincedental.
Samstag:
My DVD player plays PAL and NTSC fine.

Chadtower : sorry since im a noob at this....
since i thought pal was a different region and encoded differnetly..it was meant to be display on a pal type tv. aparently that is false.
thank you all for your feedback.

I have one of these. They are on ebay all the time and it plays PAL and NTSC perfectly. It has a built-in converter and it is region free.

PAL is a format, it is not a region. Region encoding means that they put a flag on the disc telling the player what part of the world it is for, and the player can play it or not. A format is the actual video encoding.
