I know this has probably been asked a millon times. I need to know the best way for converting NTSC vob's or whole dvd's to lossless PAL. The only program's i use at the moment are smartripper & virtualdubmod. Thanks in advance.
Great programs. Thanks. When convert do you just stick in an NTSC vob, then put the settings on PAL & convert it? I thought it was suppose to be a long gruelling process
thats it load and set options for your region... apps today are getting faster and with good qiauilty... enjoy...
Can you just load a VOB into nero 8, set it to PAL & burn it, would that be the same, don't you have to change the resolution since NTSC is 720,480 & PAL is 720x576?
Doesn't Nero sometimes re-encode? Try it and see. If you're not sure, or want more control, do it outside of Nero. Converting NTSC to Pal has never been difficult, because Apps like Tmpgenc 2.5 have been able to do it for years. You fed it the input, selected the output template, and the program would convert one to the other - difference being that perhaps it wasn't always the best quality. However, it worked, with varying results.. If you really want the best result, you have to learn a little about what is actually happening - not everybody wants to bother. What do you mean by "lossless" PAL ? (edited for clarity)
I meant PAL but wi9th the same quality as the NTSC, i suppose NTSC to PAL does not matter too much, with most LCD's handling both formats, Thanks for the input guys.
When you say "the same quality as the NTSC" are you implying that you want to do it with out re-encoding ? Because when ever you re-encode, there's always *some* loss - but it can be minimal if you're careful. Have you tried Dvdflick or convertXtodvd ?
