How to Convert VCD MPG from PAL to NTSC?

My VCD player only supports to play VCD NTSC, but my friends send me many VCD PAL. I searched and roughly knew that I need to change the VCD PAL frame rate, resolution, etc. But what frame rate or resolution I should set and what program I should use for that setting?

I have got a PAL VCD MPG video and I plan to convert it to VCD NTSC for playing in NTSC region. Can you recommend a software which can convert VCD MPG PAL to NTSC completely?
