Re: That's right, but I think it depends on where the film source was produced, doesn't it?

Yes, I have the Oppo.
As I understand it, PAL discs, regardless of source when converted to NTSC will be sped up by 4%. Upconverting has nothing to do with it.
Its really not that noticable, except sometimes in the music-pitch is higher. I have the UK (R2PAL) version of the first season of Battlestar Galactica and the female vocals(not on the US version until second season) are slightly but noticably higher. I'm not all that bothered by it, and don't have alot of PAL discs anyway, but I have talked to other people who are sensative to it. Some complain about pitch, others complain about things like flames flickering too fast, etc.
