I also need to convert a dvd to ntsc but am having problems doing it. I have found ways to do it if my video was an avi file or an mpg file, but i dont have it in that format. I have it iso format, img format, and the dvd format in the video_ts and audio_ts folderrs. I can find no way to convert to ntsc from here, and i dont know how well it would do to convert to avi then do it with all the chapters in the dvd. Anyone have any ideas?

You can re-name the .VOB files in the VIDEO_TS folder to .MPG files and treat them like MPEGS,

this will give you a load of NTSC MPG's, then you'll have to mess about with the menu's and all sorts to change the whole thing.

if the menu's (and chapters, Sub's and anything else other than the video content) aren't critical, you could just build your own NTSC DVD with your Authoring software and drop the converted MPG's into it.
