Really weird ?

[blistered]

My freind lent me a copy of the new H Potter film on dvd-r, it plays fine in my stand alone dvd, and in colour. But when I play it thro my ps2 its in b&w. My dvd player is ntsc/pal compliant but my tv set is'nt, just pal. When I use nero info tool it tells me that its ntsc 4:3 (mpeg 1, 720x480), all regions, iso9660, udf. Why b&w on the ps2 and what is the easiest way to convert the files to mpeg 2 to get better picture qual, and would the conversion fit on 1 dvd-r...Phew
