    What is the best method of converting from NTSC to PAL. I've been using TMPGenc but it the frames seem to stutter every few frames or so.

    Is there a guide anywhere that will walk me through the process of using DVD2SVCD to convert PAL 2 NTSC

    Canopus Procoder is probably easier.

    Procoder is somewhat slower, but I think the quality is better (this comment will upset all the CCE biggots out there...).

    I wish I could read this page, it has the encoder comparison in Russian:

    http://www.spline.ru/DigitalVideo/MPEG2EncodersComparison.htm

    The pics show a nice comparison tho.

    Procoder is more than an mpeg encoder. It can convert all kinds of file formats, and it's much cheaper than CCE. The USB dongle is a pain in the &%$# tho.

    Rgds,

    I've tried using canopus and the frames are smoother but the picture 'lines' as opposed to 'blocks' when the scene moves. I also have CCE if someone could explain how to use it to convert formats, the file Im looking to conver is in MPEG-2 format.

    Use CCE SP with DVD2SVCD, its much better! DVD2SVCD can also do AVI2SVCD in case you were wondering!!

    How do I use DVD2SVCD + CCE to convert an NTSC MPEG2 file to a PAL MPEG2? I thought it could only do IFO files?

    If you need to do mpeg2, then frameserve it using Avisynth into CCE.
