Since this thread is moderated by BISL, it's the perfect place to ask a dumb-ass question, right?

If a DVD on Amazon is marked  [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - United Kingdom ], I assume it won't work in NTSC, correct?  Does my player, Oppo or Marantz SACD/DVD, read it ?  Any cheap way to convert it?  Otherwise I'll have to by a VHS version.

Thanks, and we'll let Bob go pack to surfing porn at work.

Hiya Bob,

You can 'hack' your Oppo where it will read and play any disc. If that one doesn't work, let me know.

Argh... My email account has been sending that crap again. Did it get you too?
I Scott and Bryan got some. 

Please disregard.

No, I didn't, Bob, but I thought I'd play a hunch.  Apparently I was right, eh?

You know, there is treatment for that kind of thing, unless you are at Penn State................

GREAT!  I KNEW there was a reason I was hanging on to my 971!  I'll try it tonight!

Thanks!
