I know this is not a discussion group, but WTH.

I have a region-free BluRay which handles standard disks in both PAL
and NTSC, and plays both NTSC (30fps) and PAL (25fps) media files.

Since I don't know anyone with a standard off-the-shelf US standard
BluRay, I thought I'd field the question to people who probably know.

Will a US BluRay player properly play UK standard media files, mp4,
mkv, avi, etc;  or will they refuse to play them, or play them with a
messed up video display? I know that playing a PAL disk (even if
region neutral) on a US DVD player on an NTSC television delivers a
choppy image.

I know US BluRays won't play UK standard disks, but not sure about UK
standard media files. I figure with all the UK files here and a great
number (I'm sure) of US downloaders, someone will probably have dealt
with the issue.

Thanks.
Colonel Buckshot
