You are partially correct. The NTSC & PAL formats define electrical
characteristics of the video signal, but they also define frame rate
and image dimensions. Xine or mplayer might be able to indicate NTSC
or PAL formatting.

Hi Paul,
First of all, I'm no video DVD expert, but I'm not sure
the video format (PAL/NTSC) matters. It's a digital compressed video
format (MPEG2, IIRC) on the DVD. It's the player that does the Digital
to analogue conversion (where PAL-vs-NTSC comes into play). None
of that, of course prevents regional encoding (a different issue), of
course. Later,
