One, converting from NTSC to PAL properly is a complex process, there is a guide to this somewhere on this site, seek and ye shall find.

Two, if you are in Europe, chances are that your DVD player will play NTSC stuff quite happily. It will either output PAL 60 (Pal format but at 60 fields per sec = 30fps) or it will output NTSC and so you will need a TV that can cope. Again, nearly all European TV's sold in the last few years are multi standard and will handle NTSC fine, so conversion will not be required, saving a LOT of effort.
