Both my last two budget players were quite happy to play back PAL encoded discs in NTSC .

Anyhow, if PAL films are generally stored progressive but at 25 fps and a PAL/NTSC player plays PAL discs at PAL speed in NTSC, then the player must be doing some kind of pulldown other than 3:2, or dropping a frame every second - or am I missing something?
