There's no straightforward way (read: some process that a media server/player can employ automatically) to do a correct PAL->NTSC conversion. While the framerate conversion would be fairly straightforward (assuming JF would have the ability to do something like "if framerate =25fps, then convert to 29.97fps"), it's the audio (as you noted) that would be a problem. This 'guide' (https://www.digitalfaq.com/guides/video/...l-ntsc.htm) gives a decent idea of what that would entail.
Just out of curiosity, if the videos were original-NTSC sources, couldn't you just go ahead and get "local" NTSC versions of them? (I'm assuming these titles aren't PAL-exclusive if they were originally NTSC content)
