    Hi all

    Hope this i the right forum

    I have been trying to convert some home videos which are in NTSC format onto a DVD player that is Pal.

    I have a Liteon 5045 and and anm trying to back up my videos to DVD using this recorder but the screen just comes out in blue and green.

    The Video player can handled both pal and NTSC videos and the DVD recorder can handle pal and NTSC playback too.

    I've tried a NTSC to pal booster to no avail.

    what confuses me is that when i rig my Video up tp the TV the video plays back fine .

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks

    Hi DVDBack23

    If i record the File in NTSC and create a DVD.

    Will the DVD convert the NTSC DVD to a PAl format ?

    I am trying to transfer a NTSC VHS tape to a pal DVD

    Hi all

    Read this on another forum :


    As for the problem recording NTSC to a DVD recorder when in Europe ... most PAL countries have PAL VHS VCR's that can play back a NTSC VHS video on a PAL TV but almost always these PAL VHS VCR's do a conversion known as PAL60 ... this is a psydo type of NTSC to PAL conversion that works on most (if not all) modern PAL televisions but most devices (such as stand alone DVD recorders or computer video capture cards) cannot record a PAL60 signal.

    The solution?

    1.) A true multisystem VHS VCR that plays PAL as PAL and plays NTSC as NTSC

    2.) A true multisystem VHS VCR with built-in coverter than can play PAL as PAL and can play NTSC as NTSC but can also do NTSC to PAL or PAL to NTSC ... these do full conversion ... none of that PAL60 garbage. NTSC will be converted to a true PAL signal and a PAL signal will be converted to a true NTSC signal.


    Any other cheaper solutions ?

    Stationed overseas for several years and never saw the "magic box" that would convert between PAL and NTSC. Play? YES Record? YES. COVERT from one to the other? NO

    PAL support means you can watch your properly encoded DVD/VHS, whatever, on that standard (or a multi-system) TV. Some people get confused when they see their "creation" come up OK on a multisystem TV because most will automatically select the proper output based on the input source.

    There are ways to re-encode the video file(s) on a computer then burn to a DVDR.
