Thanks,
Please note that I had searched the archives prior to posting, maybe my
queries where off..
I tried playing back the DVD's on a cheap Code free DVD acquired in
Brazil and Ntsc TV and no matter where the system select was all I got
was a B&W image..
I always thought that color system wouldn't matter much on the DVD
world, my computer with RPC1 unlocked drive happily plays whatever I
throw at him..
I'm doing a search for Player for cross-standards playback and will
bring it for a test before the actual move, thanks.
Chris
