Nitpick: SD DVD is be 576p at best.

PAL-only, and without a corresponding increase in horizontal resolution. 480p is a lot more accurate, though it's in some ways more like 400p.

Nitpicking intensifies: There is no PAL/NTSC in DVD as they are analog TV color encoding systems, DVD has just resolutions and frame (field) rates. So you can practically have 576p dvds in any region.

At 25Hz. (plus interlacing)

Edit: Or that might be wrong and the framerate can be changed separately.
