Thats something to tell release groups to start doing if u want it..mention pal or vcd in the nfo file or name of the release

Check for a switch on the back of the player... My old one used to do that.

Same DVD player

I have the same DVD player(Phillips 711) and i checked everywhere on the remote and the player and found no NTSC/PAL switch. Why did it have to be the player that i bought not be able to play PAL VCDS.sucks.

NTSC TV?

Do you think that my TV can't display PAL or is it just my DVD player?

im going to try to find the manual for it to see if it has info on it

Posted by Dwaggy on 10-01-2001 02:40 AM:

might be one or the other.. Also, do dvd use the ntsc/pal teqnique? I dont think so, as you can crack pretty much any dvd player to play movies from all over the world. (region 1 region 2 ect ect)

suggestion from CraZy

Playstations are the same way,I bought a multi-gendered cable that just so happens to work on my DVD player and PSX and it plays PAL .
I bought it at my local K-mart ,bluelight special on isle 13 back in the day so I'm not sure where they sell them.

Try www.vcdhelper.com
look at the compatible dvd players section and look for a region hack.

i got a tutorial for my dvd player, had to do some crazy shit like going to the menu and pressing up down up down 1 2 3, reminded me of good old Snes Cheating back in the day

Im not really sure what u mean by "ntsc/pal tecnique" but generally R1 movies are in NTSC, and R2/R4 are in PAL (i THINK r4 (australasia is pal, dont quote me) . Pal movies are higher res, and some versions run at a lower FPS than NTSC, roughly 4% faster (PAL50 (uk) rather than the standard euro PAL60)

If you live in US and have a Sony tv u have no probs, as these are MultiSync and will pretty much accept any signal you throw at them, wether it be NTSC or one of the various PAL signals, but a lot of tv's will only accept NTSC.

You guys think u have it bad not being able to play PAL films? in the UK to back up a NTSC disc u gotta buy an expensive Worldstandards VCR or a NTSC>PAL50 box, which again is a few hundred dollars ;(

So, viva PAL vcds
