While the TV format in most of western Europe is PAL (France being the exception with SECAM, and I think that most of the ex-soviet block countries followed the USSR by adopting this format - guess why), DVD file has nothing to do with it - the DVD player will convert the digital file to the proper TV format.

I received a DVD from a country using PAL, and it played properly in my NTSC TV.
I am wondering Naftali, if you have a DVD player that is capable of playing both ? I tried a PAL formatted DVD in both my Powerbook and my regular (NTSC) DVD player and neither one could read it.

Perhaps you have access to different, better/newer equipment than I do ? although my DVD player is only a year old.
