In Reply to: NTSC here, PAL (or SECAM) there... posted by C.B. on December 16, 2004 at 08:41:58:
Actually, DVD players that convert NTSC to PAL & vice versa, and that also play PAL & NTSC directly, can easily be found for under $150 - some for under $100. Most of these are all-region, so you don't even need to hack them to make 'em code-free. I believe most of these players have SECAM capability.A few displays in North America, such as certain plasmas, FPs and DLPs can display PAL in native format. However, the thought of purchasing a plasma and having it shipped to Europe scares the heck out of me, not to mention the power issues. I would purchase the TV overseas.
