DVD ISO, PAL to NTSC help

[hiro24]

Hello... question may be a bit n00bish.. sorry..

I have a few DVD ISOs that are in PAL format, and I need to burn them off as NTSC. What's the most painless way to accomplish this?

A complete "true" conversion is not painless for a newbie.

The easiest way is to buy a DVD player that supports PAL such as a Philips or Oppo.

The basic approach is

1. Extract the DVD content from the ISO
2. Extract all the content from the DVD structure - video, audio, menus backgrounds etc.
3. Convert all elements - resize and re-encode video and stills etc to NTSC resolution
4. Apply pulldown from 25 -> 29.97 fps
5. Re-assemble all the elements back into the DVD structure
6. Burn a new disc

This is the most common and simple $40~$50 solution.
