Need some help and advice here. I am an Aussie with an American fiance - we are now living in the UK.
I need to buy a new DV camera to start making some DVDs for the family back in the US and Aus of our travelling adventures through Europe.
The tricky parts are:
- do I buy a PAL or NTSC camera
- Once I have the footage in either format - can somebody in the other country read the other format. The Aussies are probably more likely to have a NTSC compatible DVD player.
- What about DVD region issues can both countries view a DVD that I produce on my Mac.
- Can I easily produce separate DVDs for both countries in their respective format (PAL or NTSC) and the correct region.
- Can all this be done in IMovie or do I need to use Final Cut Pro
- Can the DVDs be produced out of IDVD.
Any clues as to what to do would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
