as long as it is done realtime as a minimum. quality loss is quick on tape. kind of like the movie multiplicity.

Almost any pro video can convert PAL to NTSC, and the cost is usually not that much. The real question is why not pay to convert it at the Euro end and then just send over the NTSC and we can have our way with it. Less than $20.00 for shipping and probably less than $50. to convert over there. I also can convert the video here in Texas if desired. I would be willing to pay for shipping and conversion if done here or there. The only thing to ask now is are we violating the original copyright and should we be paying some royalties on the rights to duplicate the video? After all the man did spend the time and money to make the original. Count me in on a copy either way.

Thanks,

Randy

Now that the logistics are all figured out, I'd like to buy a copy. Any format is fine.

count me in. i didn't see resolution to the copyright issue. being a musician (somewhat of ex-musician as of a few months ago), i am a little biased in this area. it is only right that the copyright owner be aware and asked for approval and paid royalties. they are the ones that risked their dollars and sweat equity to get the thing made in the first place.

best way to handle is look at the packaging. the copyright owner must be listed. let me know if tracking down contact info is needed and i would be happy to help.

once contacted, they can either point out the proper way to purchase the video or if they are small time may even permit copying. the collection of royalties is the sticky part. they would have nothing but trust to rely on and that is why you don't see this happening much.

one bootlegging approach i have seen is the bottlegger makes, distributes and sells copies. they hold royalties in escrow for the artist to claim and even notate that info on the packaging. honest bootlegging...who'd da figured.

the other side of this is don't say a word, but don't charge anything but cost. still illegal, but at least it shows you are not tying to make a profit.

i have little morals though so either way count me in.
