I see some serious bug bit you where the sun don't shine, boon23. I'm from Uruguay, a PAL-N country. My reasoning was to assume that most semi-modern DVD players and TVs can playback PAL and NTSC DVDs without much issue. Your group release is in PAL, so you either used the PAL DVDs (most likely standards converted in a sloppy way by the authoring house) or standards converted the NTSC source yourself. None of these alternatives would yield the same quality as taking the NTSC source, IVTCing it and making an NTSC FILM (23.976fps+pulldown) out of it, which is why I asked my question. There was no need to treat me like an ignorant which on this matter I'm not.
