We cannot guarantee that files extracted (ripped) from the DVD will play successfully. Sharing of copied DVDs or ripped files is illegal.

DVD Players/TV

Although the DVD is all region, it is in PAL format. It may not be compatible with some US DVD players or TVs if they are NTSC only, but I have heard from many US customers more and more that US DVD players will play PAL. In some cases they may only work when you connect via composite cable as opposed to HDMI. We cannot guarantee this, so please check the technical specs of your equipment for PAL compatibility.
