Re: Do i Take the Tv and Video? The answer!!
 

Actually the answer is maybe. The sound carriers are different. You'll definatly get a picture but maybe no sound. The TV needs to be I (uk) and b/g ( oz) compliant. Check you Tv manual it should tell you.

What make and models do yopu have??? :beer:

Re: Do i Take the Tv and Video? The answer!!
 

we brought our tv with us, a Toshiba widescreen approx 4 yrs old, and guess what... it didnt work, pictures but no sound, but we managed to solve the problem by buying one of those digital boxes (i think the equivilant in the uk is freeview ??) and now it works perfect. Unfortunatley our DVD player does not play any of the dvds we hire at the local video shop as they are all region 4 and ours plays apparently every other region except for that one :mad:
i think i'll just wait until Target has a sale on and hopefully pick a new one up for around $80 (hopefully!!)

Re: Do i Take the Tv and Video? The answer!!
 

see if your dvd can be software hacked to play all region.
