A.  With ever more people tuning in to the possibilities of DVD, we’re often asked the same questions about the format, so we’ve compiled some answers to the most frequently asked questions.

  • Region coding
  • NTSC vs. PAL
  • Fullscreen vs. widescreen
  • Subtitles

Region coding

The Deadmeat movie is Region 2 coding. What is region coding?
Imposed by the film studios due to the staggered theatrical release of movies worldwide and to protect exclusive markets, region coding was designed as a method of ensuring discs would be playable only in certain geographical locations.

  • Region 1: The US, US territories, Canada
  • Region 2: Europe, Japan, Middle East, Egypt, South Africa, Greenland
  • Region 3: Taiwan, Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Hong Kong
  • Region 4: Mexico, South America, Central America, Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Caribbean
  • Region 5: Russia (former USSR), Eastern Europe, India, most of Africa, North Korea, Mongolia
  • Region 6: China

How can I be sure a disc will play on my equipment?
European law demands that any DVD player bought within the EU (prior to any modification) will have R2 set as it’s default region. Any R2 disc available on Deadmeat.com should therefore be compatible with your player.
All R2 discs (excluding those designed solely for the Japanese market) use the PAL broadcast standard.

So once again The Deadmeat movie DVD is Region 2 - It will only play on European Region 2 or multi-region DVD players.

If you are ordering from America and do not have a multi-region DVD player. Then the movie will not play on you machine.
You may request a NTSC copy of the movie at info@deadmeat.com and we will email you about the availability, the price of the DVD, shipping charges, terms and conditions and other relevant information relating to the DVD. (Note that these prices and costs may change due to pound/dollar currency fluctuations)
How do I watch my DEADMEAT DVD on my PS2?
You should have no difficulties viewing R2 discs with your PS2. Like DVD players purchased within the EU, European PS2 consoles are set to play R2 discs as default.
How do I watch my DEADMEAT DVD on my Xbox?
To view DVDs on your Xbox console you’ll need the Microsoft DVD Movie Playback Kit. Like DVD players purchased within the EU, European Xbox consoles are set to play R2 discs as default.
Can I watch DVDs on my PC or laptop?
Since December 31, 1999, all DVD-ROM drives have been manufactured with region restrictions, known as Region Protection Control (RPC2). Like DVD players purchased within the EU, European law dictates that DVD-ROM drives available are set to play R2 discs as default.
Most PC monitors are easily able to display PAL or NTSC output, but if you use a ‘TV-Out’ port on your graphics card to pass the signal to a TV set you’ll need an NTSC-compatible TV for stable colour playback of NTSC discs.


NTSC vs. PAL

What is NTSC/PAL?
There are two different methods for picture decoding standards: Europe (R2) uses the PAL system; North America (R1) uses the NTSC system.
What will I need to view NTSC discs?
In order for stable colour reproduction during playback, you'll require a NTSC compatible TV, often referred to as a 'multi-standard' or 'world' specification.
How are NTSC and PAL different?
Firstly, NTSC and PAL differ in the number of scan lines available in the vertical axis of the screen; NTSC has 480, PAL has 576.
Secondly, there is a slight variation between NTSC and PAL running speeds. Where conventional film runs at 24 frames per second (fps), a TV signal runs at 30 fps (60 fields) for NTSC, or 25 fps (50 fields) for PAL.
For a PAL display, the simple method when transferring film is to present the film frames at 25 a second instead of 24 (the 4% speedup as mentioned above) and speed up the image to be synchronous with the images. The speedup raises the pitch of available audio tracks by one half of one tone although it's debatable as to whether this is distinguishable by the human ear.
The solution for a NTSC display is to spread the 24 film frames across the 60 video fields by alternating the display of the first film frame for 2 video fields and the next film frame for 3 video fields. This process is referred to as 2-3 pulldown and, again, it's questionable whether this process is noticeable to the human eye.
Neither format is inherently better than the other.


Fullscreen vs. widescreen

What is aspect ratio?
Aspect ratio refers to the relative dimensions of the film image (the width-to-height ratio) – there are two standard ratios: fullscreen and widescreen.
The Deadmeat Movie is Anamorphic widescreen. What is Anamorphic widescreen?
Anamorphic enhancement is a process for widescreen TVs where the original image is compressed by 33% in the vertical axis during encoding. When the player decodes the image, the vertical axis is decompressed giving a higher resolution and greater clarity.
Anamorphically enhanced DVDs can be viewed just as easily on fullscreen TVs as widescreen ones although the process is usually not discernible. PC monitors, despite almost universally being 4:3, have a higher resolution than TV sets and so can display the widescreen image in a window 854x480 pixels or higher for NTSC, 1024x576 or higher for PAL).
Despite a common misunderstanding, the term 'anamorphic' does not ensure that the image will entirely fill the screen of a widescreen TV set.


Subtitles

Where can I find which subtitles are available on a DVD?
There no subtitle facilities included on the on the DEADMEAT DVD.
What are subtitles for the hard of hearing/hearing impaired?
Unfortunately, at present, there are no subtitle facilities designed for viewers who may have trouble clearly defining particular dialogue or sound when viewing a DVD.
