    I downloaded some .WMV files from megaupload.com that were originally in PAL format. I transcoded the .WMV files into .VOB using Nero Vision Express so that I can burn them onto a DVD.

    The question is, will the DVD play in my standalone NTSC-only DVD player? Or will it not play, because the .WMV files were ORIGINALLY in PAL format?

    Thanks :)

    If you authored then in NTSC Format then it should Play...Nero will probably convert the File to NTSC for you ....The Quality will Probably be pretty Bad especially if these are Low resolution WMV Files....

    Good luck
