On NTSC? On PAL converted to NTSC? Thanks.

On NTSC, the Sampo player is okay but not as good as my older Pioneer DV-414 DVD player. On PAL to NTSC, it is watchable but quite underwhelming compared to a regular NTSC DVD or laserdisc, at least on the Columbo and Six Million Dollar episodes I've watched so far. Perhaps there are inherent quality compromises in this conversion, or maybe a more expensive conversion process would do a better job--I am not sure.
