<div style="">One gotcha is that DeVeDe, as it is normally packaged, defaults to PAL output format. Not a big deal, but very confusing until you figure it out.<br>
<br>
Not, you know, that I download video from the Internet and burn DVDs or anything.

<div>Check out DeVeDe, I have used it to convert video files to DVD. I think you could rip to video then convert to dvd. If DeVeDe doesn't do the rip check out Handbrake.<br>

Your problem won't be the region code but that Germany uses PAL and the<br>
USA uses NTSC. So unless you have a DVD player that supports PAL to<br>
NTSC conversion you are stuck. I have one (Sampo 611) that can convert<br>
and doesn't care about the region code after feeding it with a special<br>
DVD. :)<br>
<br>
Of course your other alternative is to rip and re-encode the movie to<br>
NTSC. Lot of work, loss of video quality, and loss of menu and special<br>
features.<br>
