its Time to Stop Using ALL CAPS?and its against the rules.. read Some Say it's Rude! Using all caps has become the written equivalent of shouting or being aggressive (see Enter a chat room or post a message in a discussion group in all caps and you will be inundated with comments like "stop shouting" and "newbie". Your use of all caps, besides being rude, could give you the appearance of being less than savvy in the technology world. It's Hard to Read From a practical standpoint, text in all caps is much harder to read because it eliminates all ascenders and descenders from words (those are the long lines in letters like “p,” “d,” or “h”). People tend to read entire words, not the individual letters. The ascenders and descenders help us recognize words. See the paragraphs below as proof. Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

Did you find that the all caps version was more difficult to read even though you knew what to expect? Did you notice the all caps version takes up two more printed lines, as well? If you’re not convinced, do a little survey .
If you have a PAL VCR then you can capture them straight to NTSC if you want. If you already have the file captured than you can re-encode it with the proper NTSC settings.
I appreciate your comments,and am sorry if I offended anybody, the truth is that I am a newbie, I don't claim to be an expert or any thing like that, if I was, I would not be asking for help. Thank you anyway for your help.
hi, you could import the footage into a video edting program such as adobe premire and then recode the video to ntsc. i am sure the older members will say there is a easier way to to do this, but for a inexperienced user premeire elements 2 or 3 will do a good job for you. good luck.
