Why will dvds play in one player and not another?

Here's my problem. i burn dvds perfectly and they play in my dvd player, but i get a zone(?) error from my other dvd player. disc plays fine in my computer.. is there a way to remove this zone thing from the dvd or is it a problem with the file itself?

If it is due to PAL/NTSC zone, you can't do anything to that disc.

 

Probably one player plays both standards and the other one just one PAL or NTSC.

is there any way to change from PAL to NTSC in Image Burn? i keep seeing these logs that say NTSC but mine say PAL.

It should say NTSC if you live in the US. It can be done to convert it by another program, but it's a slow and tricky process. ImgBurn can't do it. Easiest is to get a player that plays both TV systems.

If the DVD player can support both formats, it will typically do a conversion from one to the other (PAL -> NTSC, for ex.), so the TV doesn't need to support both.

 

That's the case with my Oppo, anyway. YMMV.
