How do I cgange default from NTSC to PAL?

New user - How do I change the default from NSTC to PAL? Any ideas? Is this even possible?

in iM's prefs, you find a little 'cryptical'
New project frame rate 25 (=PAL)/30 (=NTSC) fps
to convert an existing project into another video standard is no trivia task, well recommended tool doing so is
JES Deinterlacer

export your iM project as QT/Full Quality, open that file with JESD, and choose 'conversion' ...

  • How to change a clip from NTSC to PAL

    Hi there,
    I have a clip which is in 1920 x 1080 29.97 fps.
    How do I convert it to 1920 x 1080 25 fps ?
    Thanks

    Thanks Tom, Martin & Ian.
    Good question by Ian. Hopefully after answering that I do not need to buy anything
    Okay, you see, I bought this video clip from a US website, quite a nice clip. I forget to read the fine lines... it says it doesn't come with sound. However, it did suggest that I goto another website to purchase the sound.
    Another thing is that I did not notice it is 29.97 fps (I only check it is 1920 x 1080).
    The problem is I will mix this video clip with the ones that I have already taken with my Canon video camera which is on 1920 x 1080 25 fps. Obviously these two are at different frame rates.
    I just wanted to see the output (ie after mixing the 2 clips) on the computer monitor in high res.
    ANother problem is this, if I convert the 29.97 fps to 25 fps, then if I put the sound in, would the sound & video be out of sync as they flash at different rates ?
    Do I have to buy to solve this problem ?
    Thanks

  • How can I change my iPhone 4S from NTSC to PAL?

    Need help on how to switch my iPhone 4S from NTSC to PAL
    since my iPhone is NTSC and my Car RADIO/DVD player PAL
    I can hear the sound and the video/picture but unfortunately the video
    only in black and white!
    Help.....

    If your iPhone is in good shape, you can trade it in at a Verizon Store for money toward a Verizon iPhone 4S (they start at $99.99) or you can sell it yourself, probably for a better price but more hassle.
    Best of luck.

  • Satellite P300-19P - How to change from NTSC to PAL?

    Everytime I want to display on my TV I have to change the TV from PAL to NTSC as I can't find how to change the S-Video output on the laptop from NTSC to PAL.
    Does anyone know how to?
    Cheers.

    Hey,
    Im not owner of Satellite P300 but either you can change this option in BIOS or in display driver. Normally there you have an option to change between PAL and NTSC on S-Video output.
    Check this!!!

  • DVI to Video adapter switches from NTSC to PAL

    I just bought an apple dvi to analog video adapter to connect my mac mini to my tv.
    It worked like a charm the first time, but seems to reset for no reason from ntsc to pal output. This is really annoying because the pal output is nearly impossible to read, making it painful to switch it back. It's weird because it boots into ntsc just fine and the login window looks good. But as soon as I log in from either account, it opens in pal. When I change it, it will change back over night.
    I tried using both composite and s-video plugs. The TV is a sony wega xbr (US).

    I assume you have the previous generation mini even though you have posted in the forum for the newer one. The newer one wouldn't work at all from the adapter you describe. Anyway...
    ...OS X's display preferences files may have corrupted somehow. Especially since it worked before and now it doesn't. That really sounds like a problem with the configuration of the Mac.
    In /Library/Preferences is a file called com.apple.windowserver.plist. Navigate your way to it and throw it in the trash. Also, in your main user account (folder with your name on it) under ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost will also be found a file com.apple.windowserver.xxxxxxxxxx.plist where the xxxxx is a hexidecimal string. Throw that file in the trash, too. Now restart.
    When OS X restarts and finds those files missing from their expected location, it creates fresh copies with default values. This will give a clean start with any attached display.

  • Mistakenly changed from NTSC to PAL - Help!

    My display settings on my mac mini were changed from NTSC to PAL (all i will say is that it involved a 3 year old) and now i can't get an output to my display. how do i change this??

    Try starting in Safe mode. If that works, change the resolution from whatever is the starting resolution to another choice. For example, if it comes up at 640 x 480 NTSC, change to 800 x 600 NTSC. Then restart normally. Hopefully that will get things back to the way they were before.

  • FROM NTSC TO PAL

    I have a sanyo xactia hd digital camera, so i want to change from 29 fps to 25 fps and i can't or i don't know how to do it. Can somebody help me?. Thanks a lot.

    What camera are you shooting with? mpeg4 is not an idea editing format.
    You can use compressor to change your finished sequence from ntsc to pal. Do some googling and searching here. And you might check the compressor documentation.
    I use a plugin by Graeme Nattress to do the conversion. It does a great job

    Definitely worth the investment.

  • From NTSC to PAL .mov - huge, urgent problem!!

    Ive shot a shortfilm on a Canon XH A1 NTSC, 24 fps, HDV, 16:9.
    It has been edited in FCP and exported as a Quiktime Movie (.mov)
    Then i burned it to a DVD and discovers that it lags annoyingly when played on a DVD player (Im from Denmark so its PAL).
    Now, i thought running it through FCP would have solved the NTSC / PAL problem automatically, but I was wrong.
    How do I make my 23.98 fps Quiktime Movie play on a PAL DVD?? I tried Cinema Tools, but it wont open and conform the .mov file.
    I have to turn it in tomorrow and seriusly need help.
    Thank you so much...

    Hi,
    welcome to FCP discussion area.
    A great standard converter is [Nattress Standard Converter|http://www.nattress.com/Products/standardsconversion/standardsconvers ion.htm].
    However, if you have Compressor you may convert from NTSC to PAL at no cost.

  • How to set a default "from" field on outgoing Mail message

    i read through the last few pages of this support forum and googled my topic but i havent found a suitable solution.
    in Mail v 3 (3.4) there is a "From:" field in any outgoing mail. very useful for those of us with multiple non-accounts and/or .Mac aliases. i generally set a specific outgoing mail server (so that field is removed from outgoing email).
    my problem is how to set a default outgoing email address so that my recipients always get from a certain (eg work) email address when i am at work. at work, anything i send, i want to show my work email without always having to manually select the "FROM" field in the outgoing email.
    ( aside: i had read that Mail version 3 was supposed to auto-select any reply so that the reply would come from the same email i orginally sent as. this does not work on my mac.)
    This problem is exacerbated as Mail auto-rotates between my 4 email accounts/aliases (which are all listed (correctly) in the FROM field. it would be great if this list could be fixed with a default FROM address.
    eg i send an email from my work email address (FROM: [email protected]) the next email i send will be rotated through my list of .mac aliases. i.e. the next email i send will not be from [email protected], but from [email protected] the next time it might move on to [email protected] or it might revert to [email protected]
    any thoughts on how to fix?
    i have tried deleting the home/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. that is fine, but any .mac aliases (which i do use, but i dont want to be listed in the "FROM" field) are listed in the "FROM" field, and are auto-switched through my Mail again.
    i looked through Rules and Automator, but no obvious help there. any thoughts?

    Did you try Preferences > Accounts > Account Information and entering these other email aliases in the Email Address: field, separated by commas? That would give you a pop-down menu in the New Message window letting you choose which alias to use when sending an email.
    If you go to Preferences > Composing, there should be a pop-down menu near the middle of that window labeled "Send new mail from:" which will let you choose any email address you have entered in the Account Information field mentioned above, or "Account of last viewed mailbox" as the default.

  • Subtitles from ntsc to pal

    I'm building a project in ntsc and pal and it's translated into 7 languages. Is there a way to export subtitles from the ntsc project to the pal project? I'm able to export the track description, convert to .stl, but then it won't import into pal. Help!

    hey there:
    i guess there's no easy answers for the matters in this thread as it has no replies for more than a month.
    i got a related problem - and actually i didn't DO the subtitles in encore, but imported a text file of them. i had to spot in encore, though, as my import didn't contain in/out time codes.
    & now that that's all done in PAL, i'll need to do the same for NTSC. i actually figured out a kind of a rudimentary workaround for this (or, so i thought) by ripping the subtitles off the finished PAL dvd with an app called subrip & porting to subtitle workshop that exports the encore format. but unfortunately whatever i try to do converting between different time code formats/frame rates, the resulting NTSC time codes are out of whack.
    the above, though a long story, does contain two core questions:
    - how to export subtitles & their time codes out of encore?
    - how to convert above export back & forth between PAL/NTSC?
    any pointers much appreciated... cheers!
    best,

  • IMovie - Changing From NTSC To PAL & Other Way Around

    I want to make a dvd in pal format and at present its only doing them in NTSC format. I've looked at the help on the site which states:
    iMovie initially set all projects to PAL or NTSC video depending on the type of camcorder or device you connect to the computer, or the format of the first video you import.
    To set new projects to be NTSC or PAL, follow these steps:
    Update to iMovie 3.0.3 or later. It is available from the iMovie website (http://www.apple.com/imovie/). iMovie 4 is available as part of iLife (http://www.apple.com/ilife).
    Open iMovie.
    From the iMovie menu, choose Preferences.
    Change "New Projects are:" to either NTSC or PAL.
    Now I'm using 6.0.1 but I can't see "New Projects are" anywhere under the preferences in iMovie HD, can someone please offer me some suggestions as although this is my first mac I've had a pc for sometime so I'm not totally clueless about changing options and looking where to find these things....

    With iMovie 6.0.1 the wording has changed slightly. In preferences, under 'General', you now want 'New Project Frame Rate:'. Set to 25 fps for PAL, and 29.97 fps for NTSC.
    Presumably, as you're in the UK, all your imported footage is in PAL format anyway. If you are importing NTSC footage, but want to export in PAL, I would suggest that you convert the NTSC to PAL before importing it.

  • Conversion from NTSC to PAL

    Hi there, can anyone help me with that old chestnut of converting NTSC in FCP to PAL via Compressor and then onto DVD SP to burn PAL DVDs. By exporting the NTSC film from FCP using Compressor is it just a matter of setting the Inspector to PAL (as well as setting the Frame Controls to custom) even though the source file is NTSC, or does it need to be converted to PAL first. My first attempt indicated around 120 hours for processing. Is this the only option or is a plug-in required? I have tried reading the Apple manual several times but I find it just doesn't explain things clearly enough. There should be a section on standards conversion not just a vague reference here or there. Maybe I'm a bit thick. Has anyone else had this NTSC to PAL issue? Any help appreciated. Cheers.
    Al.

    The use of Compressor 2 in format conversion should be restricted to short pieces (5-10 mins or less) because, yes, it takes forever. That is, unless you've got time to burn (or no money left in the budget).
    The only advice I can give you is to set all your Frame Control setting to Better and not Best. Best increases rendering time about three-fold without that much of an encoding improvement. However, it still won't be quick.
    (And no, you do not have to do a straight PAL -> NTSC conversion, then convert that NTSC movie to an MPEG-2)

  • How to determine Oracle_Home default from multiple home installation?

    Does anyone know how to determine the current Oracle Home default in the registry when multiple Oracle Home exists?
    Both 8i and multiple 9i Version X's exist on a client machine. We need to determine the current default oracle home to determine path for various drivers.
    In analyzing the Oracle Home registry keys I have been unable to find a means for identifying the current Oracle Home default.

    Thank you for you reply, your advice is good. Unfortunately our application has to deal with all kinds of Oracle configurations and one of those is the multi-home issue. We have looked throughout the registry particular in the HKLM\SOFTWARE\ORACLE|ALL_HOMES\
    but have not found any entry that would indicate a default home. One two different system installation of multiple client installations there is no DEFAULT_HOME. We do have the HOME0, HOME1, ... HOME4 but, these are just sequencial based on when they where installed not on the order of preference or any default setting. Problem is our application needs to know the default home to locate the appropriate drives to use and appropriate connects service to look-up(tnsname) also.
    Thanks.

  • Convert from ntsc to pal, how to get best results?

    Hi there.
    I have some footage shot on NTSC that I need to convert to PAL with best possible results to be included in a documentary for tv. I undersatnd that it is possible just to select the material in a sequence, change the sequence settings and render. But is there a more satisfactory way to do it resulting in image quality.
    Any insights much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    -Tom

    Use Compressor's "Advanced format conversions" instead. i.e., edit in NTSC, then export your NTSC sequence using compressor from FCP.... choose PAL as the format.
