    It’s the holidays, and friends ask favors so they can get their gifts done. I was asked such a favor, but I need help!!

    Can you take a PAL dvd, pull the video file off, convert that file to a NTSC h264 then burn it back onto a dvd? These are old family movies from Europe.

    Thanks,
    Heidi

    Sure, why not? Rip the DVD with MPEGStreamclip, make it a QTDV movie, take the resulting QT movie and let AME figure out how to add 4.997 frames per second.

    If you plan to create an NTSC-SD DVD, those prefer to be made in MPEG2; but if you’re just burning to a data DVD for ease of distribution, then h264 would work.
