I have now made a large amount of PAL to NTSC conversions of one type or another over the past several years.

While I know NTSC takes a lot of flak from PAL countries: "Never The Same Color", etc., but in my experience most PAL video, whether it's VHS, DVD, TV or laserdisc, has worse color issues.

In general I find colors are washed out to fairly low levels across the board, except red (ALWAYS red) which tends to be so overblown it clips.

Anyone with more technical smarts able to explain this to me?
