New Dvd Player

[offline]

Just got a Zensonic z300 $136 AUS $. Cheaply built so best used as
a second player but plays more divix, xvid etc than others
on the market at the moment. Not as nice a picture as
the pioneer but as I have an progressive Conier with better picture
quality than the Pioneer, I win both ways

Hi fellow happy DV-575A owners out there!

Here's my question:

I need to know if this player outs video in PAL AND NTSC or just converts NTSC to PAL.

I'm in Argentina, where NTSC is the DVD standard, BUT I author dvds in both NTSC (to be viewed in Argentina) and PAL (to be viewed in Spain) color systems and I'm looking for a player that allows me to check how each dvd will look in their native, not converted, color system.

Thanks in advance for help,

iojan

I'm going to wait until players with DVI come down in price then upgrade. Looks good though.

Not high at all. Now I've got to do some more research on that particular one. Thanks Viral, you're the greatest.
