The mjpegtools (1.6.1.90 and later) can change the TV format. Just take
a look at the mjpeg howto (mjpeg.sf.net, section: 8.2 Frame rate
conversion)

This is done in 2 steps, changing the framerate (yuvfps), and than
changing the image size (yuvscaler). Works that way (PAL -> NTSC):
> lav2yuv video_pal.avi | yuvfps -r 30000:1001 | \
yuvscaler -O SIZE_720x480 | mpeg2enc -f 3 -b 4000 -q 7 -o video_ntsc.m2v

You can only use mjpeg encoded: AVI's or Quicktime files. 

For the other input filetypes you have to use mplayer to do the
conversion to mjpeg (yuv4mpeg):
mkfifo stream.yuv 
mplayer -vo yuv4mpeg -nosound -noframedrop videofile.ext
cat stream.yuv | yuvfps -r 30000:1001 | ...

The exact command depends on you mplayer version !!!

auf hoffentlich bald,
