NTSC or PAL Video ID

[88keyz]

Would it be possible to have ImgBurn tell the user the video format of a DVD image file? ie. NTSC or PAL, 29.97fps or 25fps, 720x480 or 720x576 and so on...

I'm not sure that's really all that relevant to burning.

While it isn't relevant to ImgBurn, anyone know of something that will return the video format, lines, if DVD video is widescreen or fullscreen, etc. just by examining the video streams?

Stick in your first two fingers and make a "Come here" (Ironically enough.) motion for about two inches along the upper anterior wall.

I started helping out one of my female staff with some video compression & backup today. Seems I'll have to be careful pointing her to the forum here or I might be up on harrassment charges

That could be the least of your worries !!!

I for one know that many times I have burned an image of a video disc only to find out after the fact that the video was in PAL format. I have a DVD player that will play both NTSC and PAL but there are lots of users out there that don't and I've seen many of them voice an angry opinion on the newsgroups because they didn't realize what they were getting was a PAL formatted video. Having a feature that told you PAL or NTSC before you burned the image might save some people a couple DVD's, some time and some frustration. Just a thought. Oh and I realize that GSpot will tell me this I was just wondering if it was possible to add such a feature to this already great program. Either way, keep up the great work and thanks for listening.
