Printabledeebee said: NTSC on PAL TVs - I'm thinking of buying this, but can anyone tell me how NTSC dvds look on PAL TVs (I'm in the UK)? I know that your dvd player has to be able to handle R1/NTSC dvds, etc - but do they actually look any different/worse than R2 ones, and do you actually notice?
The video encoding on a DVD doesn't matter if it's NTSC or PAL. I think you'd only have a problem if your DVD player is linked to your telly via an old-school RF (aerial) cable. If you have a SCART connection, RGB connection or S-Video connection to your telly, you'll be fine. The bigger problem is region encoding but most players are hackable.

Hmm, does he actually own/control it?? "I would say that Prince's top thirty percent is great. Of that thirty percent, I'll bet the public has heard twenty percent of it." - Susan Rogers, "Hunting for Prince's Vault", BBC, 2015 | |

Hmm, does he actually own/control it?? I should think he owns it, since he produced it without Warners help. He clearly sold some rights to 'broadcast/publish' it to this other company, originally Cineplex Odeon. But that doesn't mean he couldn't release his own version if he wanted, also. A bit like, say you took a photograph and you sold the right to a company to publish it. But you still own the original and could publish it yourself if you wanted, depending on the contract you sign. | |

I ordered the SOTT and it shipped on the 8th. Widescreen, clear print, DVD...  If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |
