I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

I have access to the equipment to convert it from PAL and burn you an NTSC DVD. You won't lose any measurable quality since there is a higher amount of data on a Pal so what is lost in converting it is still higher than a regular NTSC video.

It will play as clean as a purchased DVD on a regular TV. If you play it on a High Definition TV, you will see some loss, but not much.

It will take me about two hours to rip the raw data to into individual scenes, then align audio to video sequencing, insert Chapter points and away we go. Once reassembled, the video is ready to be burned into NTSC format and almost ready for your player.
Optionally, you could add menus, images, backstage antics, outtakes etc.

Then we sit and wait while the little zeros and ones align themselves in a dance of colossal precession. That part takes about 8 hours.Then we drench it with unholy Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation until the particles move no longer.

Let me know if you are interested in it, It won't take too long and I know Amy wants to watch too.

I take it that you have an old DVD player. Certainly over here, most DVD players are region-free and will play NTSC as well as PAL
