DVD Multiregion
 

Hi all,

After some advice, if I were to bring a muliregion DVD recorder to Canada would it work with a Canadian TV or would there be problems with NTSC? I know a transformer would sort would sort the voltage out but not to sure about the signal to the TV.

Any advice?
Thanks

Do a search on this site, been asked a few times I'm sure...and it depends on the player, some output dual signals, some don't....can't speak for Canada, but putting it through a vcr shouldn't be a problem or a tv if there like in blighty, but if like the states, might be more hassle than worth.

Hi
richer sounds sell multi region DVD players which run on 110v or 240v.
Either your tv needs to have dual NTSC/PAL or your dvd player needs to output either.
You can get tvs in Canada (usually sharpe) which will take either NTSC/PAL from places like Sears.
Hope this helps

Probably not. Most European DVD's will output both NTSC & PAL as PAL. Not much use for Canada as the TV expects a NTSC signal

You can buy 'reasonable' quality (I have a Malata) multiregion DVD players in Toronto for less than 100CDN. Not exactly a huge outlay. These will play DVD's from anywhere in the world and the output will be on NTSC.

Hope this helpsh
