Video standards exist to conform to a country’s televisions and broadcasts. The European union chooses to use PAL, which runs at 25 frames per second and has a DVD resolution of 720 by 576 pixels. The Unites States uses NTSC, which has a faster frame rate of 29.97 fps but a lower resolution of 720 by 480 pixels. It is difficult to speculate which achieves better quality. To play PAL video on an NTSC device, the video must be converted to match the NTSC frame rate and resolution using a video editing or conversion program such as Adobe Media Encoder, Adobe After Effects or VirtualDub.
