Hi!I have pal avis i want to change framerate from pal to ntsc . can anyone tell me the quickest/easiest way to do this?

if you do a search at these forums for quotAL to NTSCquot;, you'll find MANY threads providing the information you're seeking. If you do a similar Googlesearch, you'll find literally hundreds of such sources...

i know, i was hoping someone could point to a guide that is particularely easy and can do batch pal to avi.

TMPGEnc has a batch option. Only thing is, you have to change filenames yourself (it can't just convert a whole folder or something).

You'll need to write the following AviSynth script and load into TMPGEnc. Don't use TMPGEnc's own framerate conversion, it's terrible.
AVISource(quot;lt;your videogt;quot;)
AssumeFrameBased
AssumeFPS(23.976,Audio=True)
SeparateFields
SelectEvery(8, 0,1, 2,3,2, 5,4, 7,6,7)
Weave

hmm.  i have a batch file at home that can do this (well, it goes NTSC to PAL at the moment, but that part is easily fixed).

just drag a folder onto the .bat file and it'll generate avs scripts, and feed them all to QuEnc at your chosen bitrate.  you'll have to work that one out for yourself - 20 * 25 mins might be too much for a DVD, so perhaps you'd like to allocate a certain number per disc.

you'll need avisynth and a few plugins though.
