Erin Brockovich (UK release) - are the SD extras in 480 (NTSC) or 576 (PAL)? - Blu-ray Forum

Bruce Morrison · 10-21-2008, 09:00 AM

Could anyone confirm whether the UK BD of 'Erin Brockovich' has extras in standard definition and, if so, are they in NTSC (480) or PAL (576)? I have a US player, which wouldn't be able to play PAL material.

Incidentally, my information is that this is a region-free BD - please let me know if I'm wrong!

Thanks for any info!

1. i can confirm disk is region free
2. states special features in standard definition will assume 576.

hope this helps

Thanks for the region confirmation. I don't think it can be assumed that the SD extras are in PAL just because it's a UK release. Often, BD releases of Hollywood films by the major studios have NTSC extras, regardless of the Blu-ray region, since all European BD players and TVs support NTSC and there's no reason for the releasing organisation to pay extra money to convert original NTSC material to PAL.

This is certainly true of all Warner BDs released in the UK - I'm just hoping someone can confirm that it's also true of this Sony release. Anyone?

I have the Korean version which definitely has NTSC extras. I have a feeling all Sony/WB releases will have NTSC extras regardless of region.
