PAL and NTSC vary in 2 major ways: Color Signal and Refresh Rate. You would a converter which will convert both the Color and the Refresh Rate. Some convert just the color since some TVs support both 50 and 60 Hertz, but it is better to get one that will convert Color and Hertz (Refresh Rate). These can be bought online.

The process of converting a NTSC regionally locked game into one that will play on a PAL regionally locked console varies, depending upon wich console you are attempting to port the game to. The SNES, for example, has an extremely simple regional lockout system. All you need to do is find one NTSC game, one PAL game, and preform a simple case swap by using a screwdriver to open up each cartridge, remove the circuit board inside, and then put the NTSC circuit board into the PAL case, and the PAL circuit board into the NTSC case. After closing the cases back up, both games will now work fine in their new system (ie, the PAL game will now work in, and only in, a NTSC console, and vice versa), minus the mismatched cartridge labels. The reason for this is that the only difference between an NTSC and a PAL SNES cartridge were their shape.

However, on a disk based console (like a PS3 or Xbox 360), there is nothing you can do besides physically opening the consoles up and modifying the circuitry. This, however, can be very risky, and you may end up accidentally breaking your console.

Can a DVD bought in the USA be seen in France on a French DVD player?

In short no. France and much of Europe use a different system for their TV's. the US use NTSC and Europe uses PAL. They are not compatible. The only way to get around it is to either copy the DVD to your computer and re-burn it in PAL format; or make sure that the person you are sending the DVD to has a multi-region DVD player.


How do i convert Nintendo Wii games from NTSC to Pal?

PAL is the European color encoding system while NTSC is the North American system. If material has been encoded in PAL it is also (almost always) using a 50Hz field rate with 576 lines making up the image while NTSC will be 60Hz with 480 lines. To perform a full conversion, a new signal must be generated from the original. The field rate needs to be changed and the number of lines also needs to be changed. Both are complex processes requiring some powerful computing. Broadcasters use the technique on a regular basis whenever content is created in one system and broadcast in the other. Typically, they will spend $50000 on a standards converter to do the job. Domestic equivalents are available at a much lower cost but the conversion quality normally leaves something to be desired. Despite the lower quality, domestic standards converters will still run into thousands of dollars. If a full conversion needs to be done, there are post production houses that can carry out the conversion at a fraction of the cost of the converter. Most will only convert material when they are sure that copyright will not be infringed by doing so. If it's a commercial DVD, most will refuse to convert or copy it. All is not lost though. Most modern DVD players and televisions will handle both standards. Playing a PAL DVD on North American equipment is possible if you are lucky enough to have compatible equipment. In Europe, it is even more likely that the equipment will be multi-standard. Once again, there is a potential problem: Commercial DVDs are often limited to certain regions. A DVD coded for use in North America will not be playable in other parts of the world. The limitation is there to enforce distribution agreements. Despite having multi-standard equipment, the regional coding may stop you playing the DVD. This coding does not apply to home produced DVDs so it's well worth trying if the DVD is your won creation.


How you convert ntsc tv to secam?

There are such devices as `television standards' converters used for that very purpose. And since the television industry is going all digital, it probably won't be long before you can get a used one on Ebay or through some other broadcast equipment supplier. One of the other ways, is by using your computer and making the conversion through either a software application or possibly even a particular make and type of video card. For instance, my ATI video card can play either NTSC or PAL, and I've seen quite a few free proggies on the net for doing standards conversions. But, you gotta spend some time diggin' for em because they're up against the commercial software makers. You may be better off just trying to convert your video into a different format, such as .wav. Divx, Quicktime, etc. using your computer. Then take if from there. Too many options and plenty of ways to experiment to get the results you want.

Can you play a PAL DVD through a Television?

You have to have a DVD player that can play PAL DVDs. Some dual format players, particularly sold in the US, convert the PAL format so it is output in NTSC format. The other type of dual format players output NTSC discs in NTSC format and PAL discs in PAL format. If you have a the first type your NTSC TV will display both (losing the benefits of the (slightly) higher definition in the PAL format). If you have the second type, you will need a dual format TV to play PAL discs. The second combination is more common in countries that used the PAL standard for terrestrial broadcast TV.
