    This is not easy to do but possible. How bad the quality will be, I don't know.

    The basic steps would be something like this:

    Rip the DVD with Shrink, set the size to DVD-9 so you don't add any compression. Set the target as a hard drive location.

    Open NeroVision Express. Add your video files, selecting the VOB files from the Shrink target location.
    At the bottom of the NVE window, Select "More", then "Video Options". Change the Video Mode to NTSC.

    From here just follow the steps in the program, create a menu if you want. Make sure you have the output file size set to "DVD". Once the you get finished with that, burn it to a DVD.

    It may take Nero a [bold]long[/bold] time to do this but I think it is possible. Try it and see if it works.

    I think you can buy players that are compatable with both PAL and NTSC formats...

    I meant to say something to think about. If you get a multi regional player will you need a PAL TV?
