I'd like to send all over to view at Ian's house... but if I can't, is most good enough?

I can't answer this for the original poster; for distributing my projects "most" wasn't nearly good enough.

In my experience problems in viewing NTSC in Pal - Land are usally not player related. Bad Quality (not only for NTSC) results often from wrong settings in the TV - Set or Player. Sometimes people just use the wrong cable or port. Older TV Sets can be a problem.

We have a big house, Seth, and would be more than happy to host a family DVD evening for the Germans - but it's a bit of a trek for them! ;-)
