Hi,
Just wanted some help playing a PAL disc. I have a Toshiba upconverting DVD player (D-R400) hooked up to a Samsung LCD TV (LNT5265F). When I play a PAL disc the video appears jerky, when I play a NTSC disc, however, the video is smooth. I know the dvd player supports NTSC and PAL but I'm not sure about the TV. Is there anyway to fix the jerky video with PAL discs? Maybe there is a setting I could change?
Thanks for the help.

Describe "jerky". Is it completely unwatchable?
The player may very well "support" PAL....in a PAL country(meaning it is outputting a PAL signal)....you need it to output an NTSC signal via the player converting PAL to NTSC on the fly.
You need to do some research to find out if this player indeed does convert between the two formats. You can also check in the players menu for an "output" setting/option. -

Sounds like the typical result of a player that can't perform PAL to NTSC very well. The only solution, is to get a player with good PAL to NTSC conversion.
