Help w/ frame rate problem...

[springtyme]

Hello!

I'm very new to VCD. I was given a .mpg file. It says that it is 25fps 320x240. I burned it as a VCD. When I play it in my Apex 600a 2 things happen:

1) When I hit play, it is B&W and rolls.

2) if i go to tracks, and play that way, it plays fine, but is 1/4 frame in the top right. I can zoom and pan.

The original I was told was PAL. I'm NTSC.

So what can I do to convert it to play properly on NTSC.

I'm also on a Mac, but have access to Windows 98 in VPC.

Thanks

Mike

pal vcd is 352x288 @ 25fps. read your dvdplayer manual to find out if it will play pal discs on ntsc equipment
