Back in the mid-late 2000s, it was always pretty important to be mindful of ensuring you used the correct video format for your region. PAL videos weren't ideal for playback in the US, due to the differing frame rates, resolution etc. However, with the advent of digital and most everything being streamed directly from a computer or tablet, I'm wondering if that's still a concern I should be on the look out for.
For instance.
If I were to play a video file that was encoded from a retail Blu-ray disc released in UK or ASIA (assuming it's encoded at full 1080p resolution, a full 24FPS and at a decent bitrate), would that video still play back no different than if I had a version from a retail US release? I assume that since we're operating outside the bonds of the disc medium, region specific video standards are no longer going to factor in? Or is that an incorrect assumption on my part?
Thanks!
