I just got 12 U2 concert DVD's in a trade but i unfortunately can't watch them as they are in PAL Format.

I got them hoping they might work and heck it was a deal i couldn't pass up!

Is there anyone out there that is able to do convert these to NTSC?

I will trade any shows i have, send as many blanks as you need, let you make your own copies... whatever it takes!

I am dieing to see these shows.

If you can help please PM me and hopefully we can set something up.

Thank you for your time.

I think that this link may provide your answer: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/userguides/166237.php

Or more generally, start here: http://www.videohelp.com/convert#4;41

Many computer DVD players can play PAL & NTSC. I have a Pioneer DVD burner on my comp and both formats play flawlessly. THis might get you by until you get the conversion figured out.

Additionally, there are loads of "professionals" who make this their business. Check the yellowpages and see what it costs; and talk about the process with them.

If he could view them he wouldn't have posed this question.
