 My dvd player is GE model 1101P. The manual insists I use "Region 1" discs
only (ooh, so demanding). Funny thing that is; the manual also lauds the
machine's supposed versatility (claimed to play VCD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3, audio
CDs, yadda, yadda, yadda, yadda). Could find no reference to that "PAL-NTSC"
conversion stuff ya'll talk about. Guess the only thing to do is snatch a
copy of the dvd wherever I can find it--then worry how to play it.
