And one more thing..
If your tv doesn't support NTSC for example, you can't play movies made with this standard, but I think most of the resent tv sets support both NTSC and PAL.

PAL and NTSC are more about TV(video) standards than a vhs or dvd.
They basicly dictate how many frames, what resolution and how the scanline(interlace etc) works.

PAL is a higher resolution format for DVD than NTSC. All else being equal, a PAL DVD of a movie should look significantly better than the equivalent NTSC DVD

Just check your TV and DVD player.. and if its compatible with both, then u never have to worry about this again.
I think all the ones that u get today (in Sweden at least) run both formats.
Never argue with an idiot...he will drag you down to his level, and then beat you with his experience...
