Your set top player is usually set to a region and normally only play DVD's from that region or region-free DVD's.
DVD Fab will take the original DVD, and when copying it, remove any region code present on the DVD, providing you have this is ticked in the settings.
This will allow the copy to be played in any region DVD player but, as I said, does not convert between TV standards so the copy may not play unless your equipment is multi-system."Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." - Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790

It was actually a PAL/NTSC issue that made me switch towards a media center streaming video to my XBox over DVD duplication - getting the Danish version of Riget to play in my DVD player was far too annoying. If you don't have a compatible system, you can check to see if you can read DIVX or other formats in your DVD player and see if DVD-to-Mobile is right for you.

You can play it on your PC but not on your TV. PAL and NTSC are different video standards, only coincidentally related to region coding.Supplying DVDFab Logs in the Forum ...........................User Manual PDF for DVDFab v11................................ Guide: Using Images in Posts

It was region-free so it didn't matter what region the DVD player was encoded for. Even if it wasn't, many cheap DVD players ignore that part anyway.
As for the PAL/NTSC issue, the most likely reason is that something in your European setup knows how to read NTSC as well as PAL (this would especially be true if it catered to US tourists).
Another viable option is that you ended up with a bootleg version of the disc which by random fluke was PAL-encoded and wouldn't work on US DVD players - not likely but a lot more amusing to contemplate
