    Hi ginneypig,

    Q1: Check with your friend in Oz to see if his equipment (player and TV) will play NTSC. When I lived in the UK (also PAL) it was common for our equipment (Europe) to play NTSC as well as PAL.

    Q2: Is it a DV cam? If so, if it's not too old it will have a firewire out port. Hook this up to a firewire port on your PC and capture to DV AVI using WinDV.

    From there, you have many options: VCD, SVCD, DVD etc. There are other possibilities too...
    There is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England: Telstra Stadium, Sydney, 22/11/2003.

    Carpe diem.

    If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.
