Thanks Tom. I googled using Toast and found this discussion: http://www.ripdifferent.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=10288 The answer is that Toast 10 converts PAL to NTSC but there are slight audio skips - not good. I wonder if there are tweaks to avoid it? Other suggestions? Thanks, Jaime Jaime Michaels Producer Out! For Reel Film Series P.O.
