PAL/NTSC vs. NTSC/PAL fixed
Can someone please explain how to use the video system tags properly, because I already had a little discussion with Moloch about that.
From my point of view, a crack with a NTSC-fix will be tagged PAL/NTSC, so original format first, followed by format it was fixed for. So PAL-fixed stuff should be called NTSC/PAL then. This also was common usage in the past, as far as I remember.
Maybe change the label to "any (PAL fixed)" or "any (NTSC fixed)" to make it clear. (Cannot always be determinded from the credits.) |

Don't care much about cracks..
But what if I release a demo that only works on NTSC or intentionally works on PAL and NTSC. Should I label it in some specific way? I have done this in the past and would like to know for the future. |

then you label it as "PAL" or "NTSC" - obviously. |

At least in one case the [NTSC] tag was removed by an operator and the demo won't even work an PAL. So I'm still wondering what the correct labeling should be. |

sure it was a moderator and not some hyperactive tagging specialist? =)
however, in such case simply complain (and lock the entry) (which entry was that anyway? :)) |
