[ale] OT: DVD video format 'Newbie' question

[Lightner, Jeff]

Are sure about laptops?   Mine certainly allows me to play other regions
but only if I switch regions and it limits the number of times I do that
before the final one is "permanent".

Is more likely region issue. PC DVD drive are normally region free.
Years back they were region locked. PAL or NTSC DVD should be played
normal as far as DVD player is with NTSC output video. Not sure for
french SECAM system though. I guess if your DVD player is region free
and good with quality mechanics/optics there will be no problems at all.
