    This could be due to the movie being PAL format and your system is only NTSC compatible. You would need to convert the DVD to NTSC.

    You can use a few different programs for this.

    ConvertXTODvd which is a pay program. There is a trial but it leaves a watermark on the video. Below is a guide on how to use it.

    You can also use Nero Vision Express. Below is a guide on how to use that as well.
