It's in reverse.

@Op, not Anon #543175
I think your logic is flawed a bit there.

Those are analog standards anyway. I watch ponies in HD.

For films and many TV shows, PAL is usually 4% faster, due to the difference between 24 and 25 fps. 30 fps material is not sped up for PAL broadcasts, and 25 fps PAL material is not slowed down for NTSC broadcasts. I don't know if pony is sped up for PAL.

Can you even notice the difference under normal circumstances ?

The only reason such difference in standards exist internationally is just to fuck us up.

The different standards are in part due to differences in mains electricity frequencies. Early TV sets just got their time base from the mains frequency rather than internal frequency generators.

On older video games there used to be a phenomenon called "PAL slowdown", making PAL games 17% slower than their NTSC counterparts. It sucked balls, and made fighting games unbelivably boring.

So sorry OP, RD is 17% slower here. :(

Interestingly, the first Sonic game on the Genesis/Mega Drive suffered from the "PAL Slowdown", yet the sequel didn't suffer from it. In actual fact, I played a PAL copy of Sonic 2 on an American Genesis with no problems. At the same time, I played a PAL copy of Twin Cobra on the same Genesis, and it went from a tough as nails game with an awesome soundtrack to a game sent from the fiery depths of hell with an awesome soundtrack.

I still love playing Twin Cobra, though.

I notice frame interleaving in some converted videos, either way. Annoying as all hell.

^^^ I'm surprised a PAL game even worked on an NTSC system. I've heard you can't even get a picture running PAL on an NTSC system.

I watch everything on my computer these days; I dunno how anyone coped in the days when their sets limited them to one specific type of video. Whether 25fps or 30fps doesn't really matter to me, though; more important that you view it in the original framerate, whatever that happens to be; or at the very least that the framerate conversion was done well.

Ponies seems to look decent enough in either iTunes/HD cable's 23.976fps or Hubworld's 29.97fps.
