Hi >> ok I will try not to make this sound to complicated.

Wot I want to do is make my own DVD video with 6 of mike tysons fights on a single DVD

I have managed to cutt out all the fights I want using the authoring option on dvd shrink. of all the fight DVD`s I have of mike Tyson

I am now left with 6 folders

tyson fight 1
tyson fight 2
tyson fight 3
tyson fight 4
tyson fight 5
tyson fight 6

in each folders is 1 of the fights I want.

after doing some reading around >> i was recomended a programe called TMPGEncDVDAuthor, as I wanted to put all these fights on a single dvd, with a nivce fancy menu which would allow mw to jump to any fight I wanted.

all seemed to be going good .>> untill I noticed that I was getting a error report when adding a few of the fight folders

the error I was getting was because a few of the fight folders were in NTSC format >> and the rest in PAL.

It was saying soemthing aboout it cant have 2 diffrent formats on the 1 dvd.

will I have to re-encode all the NTSC fight folders to pal so there is no conflict. ?

or as most TV`s in the world support both formats PAL and NTSC > is there another programe out there that will allow me to add both PAL and Ntsc on the same DVD >>> with out getting any of these errors

thanks to any 1 who can help me out !!

Hi, in fact you cannot mix NTSC and PAL video on 1 DVD. So you'll have to re-encode to one of the formats.
