so ... being that R2 covers PAL, SECAM and NTSC standards there's no such
thing as an NTSC, PAL or SECAM DVD ... only the region coding ... so there's
no conversion of the video from PAL > NTSC > SECAM etc. ... the only
conversion is from the digital data on the disc to a video signal. If your
player is multi-region then it's going to display a R2 disc as good as it'll
show a R1 disc.
