Re: DVD changers

["marcus_warrington" <marcusw@xxxxxxx>]

Phil is correct :)
NTSC 4.48 is also known as PAL 60 and is how we are able to
playback NTSC tapes on our PAL VCR's... BUT only for playback
you cannot record it. I think Brazil uses this as its official
Tv standard ?

A transcoder simply converts 3.58 into 4.48 and the cost about
=A350 (50 Uk pounds) .. or sometimes you can pick them up on
eBay for around =A330.
