Hi All,
Is there a way to check to see if a dvd is NTSC or PAL?
May sound silly , but I need to know .
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

In a standard DVD, you will find files with a VOB extension. Open these files with Video Edit Magic. In the Collections window, under the Media Files tab, look up the VOB file's Video Properties for the file's dimension.
If the reported video dimension is 720 x 480 pixels then the video is NTSC. On the other hand, if the video dimension is 720 x 576 pixels then the video is PAL. Standard DVDs also contain a region code that informs the DVD player about the picture standard (NTSC or PAL) used by the DVD. However, for video editing, you can use the dimension to determine the picture standard.
