On macOS The moment you've all been waiting for is finally here! MyVMK is now playable on macOS. Available Now ​ That's right!

With the new macOS Client from MyVMK, our guests who own Apple computers may once again experience the magic! Just click the download link to get started! In order for the application to run however, there is one tweak you do need to make as macOS will tell you the application is not from a 'Verified Publisher.' . Open Finder and locate the MyVMK macOS Client (Don't use Launchpad!). Control-click the application icon, and click Open from the shortcut menu. Click Open.

The application is now saved as an exception to your security settings and can now be opened by double-clicking it as you would any other application. NOTE: you can also grant an exception for a blocked application by clicking the 'Open Anyway' button in the General pane of the Security & Privacy preferences. This button is available for about an hour after you try to open the application. To open this pane, chose Apple Menu System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, then click General. All of us here at MyVMK are thrilled to invite our macOS players back into the kingdom and we can't wait to share the magic with you!

As always, if you encounter any issues don't hesitate to reach out to us From all of us at MyVMK, have a magical day! This is fantastic news because the percentage of people who would be interested in playing MyVMK having access to the game is a whole lot closer to 100. It has been said that many people who were otherwise active in-game left due to their inability to play since they were using macOS and browser support died. Those people very well may not be checking the forums anymore, so you guys might consider sending an email to everyone registered about this news.

Everyone else should consider sharing the main post with anyone they know who played MyVMK and uses macOS. That is our most well-calibrated shot at restoring the population (and, perhaps subsequently, vibe) MyVMK basked in during the time immediately after its opening, in late 2013 and most of 2014. What do you all say?

Well, PAL and NTSC are analog modulations. After you capture PAL or NTSC video into your Mac, they are no longer PAL or NTSC - they are digital. They may have the same resolution and frame rate as an analog PAL or NTSC video, but they can still be converted into either one (with some quality loss - but this is true of analog conversion too). There are no NTSC DVDs, there are only DVDs that have 29.97fps, 720x480 MPEG-2 video to maximize video quality on an NTSC analog output. So just master your video at 29.97fps, 720x480, and it will automatically work on NTSC DVD players.

FfmpegX can probably help you here, and Toast might be able to do it as well. Well, PAL and NTSC are analog modulations.

I don't know your location. I'll assume North America. In that case, if it's Region 1 and PAL (for example, a DVD that is encoded for all regions) it will play just fine. If it's only Region 2 (which is what UK is) then it won't play. The DVD player in OS X has to be set for a specific region, and you can only change it a few times.

So you could change your Region to 2, but then you wouldn't be able to play North American DVDs. As far as ripping it and reburning, yes, you can do that. That gets a lot more complicated - you'll need several pieces of software to get it done.

Also, is it copy-protected? Give us some more information, and we'll help you out.

Does VLC support DVDs from all regions? Well this mostly depends on your DVD drive. Testing it is usually the quickest way to find out. The problem is that a lot of newer drives are RPC2 drives these days. Some of these drives don't allow raw access to the drive untill the drive firmware has done a regioncheck.

VLC uses libdvdcss and it needs raw access to the DVD drive to crack the encryption key. So with these drives it is impossible to circumvent the region protection. (This goes for all software.

You will need to flash your drives firmware, but sometimes there is no alternate firmware available for your drive). On other RPC2 drives that DO allow raw access, it might take VLC a long time to crack the key. So just pop the disc in your drive and try it out, while you get a coffee. RPC1 drives should 'always' work regardless of the regioncode. Converting PAL to NTSC and vice versa.

Syntek stk1150 driver for mac. My experience is somewhat different from previous posters. Up until about a year ago I was very involved with performing standards conversions.

I tried a variety of relatively inexpensive hardware and software standards conversions, including Natress. Ultimately however they didn't quite work. None looked nearly as good as the original, ie. It was apparent to a non-professional viewer that the video wasn't quite right.

So my company spent the big bucks, around $12,000, for hardware that did the job pretty well. Pretty well, but not perfect. I think perfect would have costed us around $30,000. (fyi One of the biggest issues in dealing with standards conversions is how much physical action is in the source videos, ie. Is it talking heads or a soccer game? Action is more difficult to do right.) My advice to anyone wanting quality standards conversion is send it to a company that has one of these machines.

Expect to pay $80-$120 per dv tape. Caveat: my information is about 1.5 years old. There may be new drastically improved software solutions out there today.
