Denmark NTSC or PAL

I am kinda in a hurry to send a DVD off to Denmark for a family reunion. I completely forgot about the format. It is a slide show I did in NTSC.

PAL or NTSC is the question or both maybe. I apologize for my ignorance!

Denmark is a PAL country. Check this:

The best you can do is recreate the project in PAL (you cannot change an existing project from NTSC to PAL).

Most DVD players/TVs in PAL countried can play NTSC standard, but you really can be sure of that at least you can ask the people in Denmark.

You can find here a list of countries and standards:

Thanks Alberto, I guess I got a little ahead of myself. The project was for a women who lives here but she told me a copy will be sent to Denmark. I forgot about that. I have never dealt with changing NTSC to PAL before but I think I am going to have to start over. It's already completed in DVDSP and a NTSC copy burned!

I know this response is late but..
the way i understand it, if there is no moving video (you said slide show) you can convert it to pal format without starting over again.
