Downloaded a PAL version from the spleen (4GB version).  Changed parameters from PAL to NTSC with IFOedit and it works just fine in both my Sony Blu Ray players.  You have to edit each ifo file, video_ts and then each numbered one after. Building Empire had 11 to edit. Quick and easy and effective

wouldn't that change the framerate, and therefore the runtime/speed/pitch of the film?

Sounds just like all the other ones, slightly sped up voices

I just devoured the one Star Wars Begins and Returning To Jedi. Would love to see this!

Try this, it's worked every time for me:

http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/convert_pal_to_ntsc_page_5.cfm

 

Nice! I'll give it a shot tomorrow, thanks!!

If that doesn't work I recommend the program AVStoDVD.  This, unlike the IFOedit patch cheat option, will give you a 100% NTSC DVD.  The only reason this is my last-ditch option is because you might lose a little quality.  The first option I gave you has no loss in quality, of course.  I use the HCenc encoder in AVStoDVD which is a phenomenal encoder so you can't really lose with this either.

I have a program that will convert the main video file, but I was trying to preserve the menu and extras. Not sure if that's possible.

What's the name of the program you're talking about?  There are different ways to preserve the menu and extras but it's time consuming and a pain.  From what I've read it appears you need an extensive amount of software which is freeware or otherwise.

FWIW here's a guide for this:

The program I have is AVS video converter, it doesn't preserve the menus though.  That guide is nice but a bit extensive for a documentary I'll only watch a few times.  Thanks though!

I was trying to do more of this a couple of years ago, and I got really irritated with the judder that most converters produced when going from PAL to NTSC.  I'm not very technically savvy and couldn't follow that complex guide from Doctor M.  I preferred the cheating method with IFOedit, as at least my video was smooth when watched on a proper player, and it was easy for my little brain to do.  But I just now did a little more research, and it appears this little program might work miracles...and it's freeware!

Everything I read about it says that it perfectly converts and brings the menus along for the ride!  I'll have to check it out for a few of those videos that I had to cheat with.

Can't find a tutorial and when I tried, it won't accept any of the files in the Video_TS folder.  Would be so much easier if whoever has the NTSC version of Building Empire could tell us where they will upload lol

I told you, Fanedit.info.  The links are dead right now, but like Frink said above they're on his list to upload to Fanedit.info.  So until he does that you're going to have to make do with those PAL versions. (or download the Vimeo ones with Jdownloader)

For me this exchange between chyron and Frink was enough information but I guess it would have been better for you guys if Frink would have said he's uploading them to Fanedit.info which is where he always uploads.

Well, it's Frink, not Davdar.

When I looked on fanedit.info after he posted that, it wasn't there. Also, I didn't know what he meant by upload "list." Did he mean he added them to the RAR on fanedit.info? No. There was only one .dlc, and its links are dead. Besides, I thought Davdar was in control of that. Did he mean he uploaded them to MySpleen? No. None of those are NTSC, nor are any of them recent uploads.

You can understand my confusion.

Frink is going to upload them to Fanedit.info.  The 'list' he was talking about is various fanedits he's going to upload to Fanedit.info.  Davdar's could be further down the list so it could be a while.

Yeah I have a version I can watch, don't mean to be impatient. I have Star Wars Begins and Returning to Jedi in cases with nice art on the shelf. Would be nice to get Building Empire up there as well. Whenever the files get uploaded is fine, I'll grab them then. Thanks for the help everyone has offered!

I was only explaining my confusion. I wasn't meaning to be a jerk.

 

I'm  sorry if it came off like I was.
