Remember PAL DVDs of US movies and TV Shows, and how they were converted to 25 fps thus introducing a "smurf lite" pitch on the soundtrack and sped up action?
This was part of everyday life for us living in Europe (I don't know what SECAM framerate was, sorry to any french reading this) and we never knew better until the flat TV, Bluray and streaming revolution allowed us to experience media as it was intended.
Now, I have some PAL releases that I would like to enjoy without the above "features". Is there a way, using post processing in MediaPortal to force a re-conversion of said material "on the fly"? I don't know if I can sit through 5 seasons of Angel like this being like it is. And streaming services all seem to be PAL here in Sweden for that show too.
