American market DVD players often do not handle PAL at all.

European DVD players all handle NTSC, mostly because Japan is region 2 but
is an NTSC country so any region 2 player has to be able to play both
systems.

As for squirting it out that is correct for the majority of 1st gen big name
players, but then the TVs not coping became a problem ,so MOST not all
players do some form of conversion so the pal NTSC playback is pos on most
not all opposite TVs .

That why I pointed to that one because it will play PAL on NTSC TV . Most
European TV's can handle NTSC most USA TV's can't handle PAL.
