Does this model has PAL system?

It depends where you purchase the camera. In countries using PAL (i.e. Europe), the camera has PAL; in countries using NTSC (The Americas) the camera will have NTSC. You cannot switch between the two systems.

This is what u need to know. Last sentence is most important. PAL/NTSC Conversion - The BDP-93 supports NTSC and PAL systems for both disc playback and video output. It can also convert content of one system for output in another. (Subject to DVD and BD region restrictions.)

Several of the video editing software products will convert to Pal . I use Sony Vegas which will do this.

This is inaccurate.PAL discs are converted by the player. I have one and tested it soon after it arrived. It works flawlessly on my NTSC-only TV.This player will play literally almost ANYTHING. Format, code, region, you name it.

CHECK OUT THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION!"NTSC & PAL Playback (PAL playback requires a TV that also supports the PAL format)"ie, NO. Unlike other Philips DVD players you need a PAL TV to view PAL with this player.

Yes it does. It will play Pal also. I haven't played any other region DVDs. There are instructions for other regions but I haven't used that option. Nice player. Hope this helps !!!

I'm not an expert, but I'm 99% sure the answer is "no". PAL and NTSC models appear to always be separate and numbered separately and sold in their respective markets. This is a "search the Internet" type question, looking for maybe some kind of converter than takes an NTSC signal and modifies it for PAL playback (if that's possible).

ALL DVD players play PAL DVD?????? While this does not address your main comments dedicated to region-free play, it is absolutely NOT true that ALL DVD players play both NTSC and PAL! I even recently bought a relatively expensive Panasonic DVD-Burner/multi-format Player that is pretty high end in everything and yet that does not handle PAL, so I must take exception to your glib declaration that may lead some folks who are interested in PAL DVD viewing to stop double-checking for that specification before making an unfortunate purchase.

It is usually NTSC unless stated specifically. If the camera is being sold by a European seller be careful and ask. PAL will not play back on American TVs which are NTSC.

The DVRs can do PAL, but the cameras are NTSC only for North America and will now work with PAL. The customer can use same Q-See DVR and just buy PAL cameras from other country and they will work with the DVR.Thank you

This dvd player will not play a Pal BD disk or any Pal DVD for that matter. Gus K is wrong about no Pal Blu-ray. Just check Blu-rays at Amazon UK.

Short answer: The unit is physically capable of playing PAL, but it will refuse because it is region-locked.I can't link to the manual from Amazon, but if you search for P10.1ES_EN_UM.PDF you should find it. Page 22-23 explain the following: The player is region-locked, though they apparently make players for all 6 regions. The USA is region 1, and NTSC is the format we use here, so it's unlikely you'll ever see a "normal" PAL dvd that is also region 1. If you do happen to have a region-free PAL DVD, it should play just fine.

Does anyone know whether it will convert PAL/NTSC DVD when using TV out and connecting to NTSC/PAL TV? The manual says, that the DVD has to match the TVs system, which would mean it won't convert.I need a player I can take oversees and hook up to a TV over there. It also would be nice to be able to do the same with PAL discs over here. So far from high end players I found only Pana LS91/97 which are close to that, but it requires service remote to unlock regions and is stil missing PAL->NTSC conversion.

I'm kind of like wondering if this Samsung Smart TV does have PAL, SECAM & NTSC features for regional operation. Because NTSC only operates in both North and South America and not for Africa!!

Hi, apparently this Sony High Definition Camcorder is an NTSC system-based camcorder. It doesn't shoot PAL video system. -Ely

I'm not sure, but I've older versions of LG players that have been able to play PAL formatted DVD's. Meaning DVD's from the U.K.

I don't know. Wish I did. I bought this DVD player just so that I could play PAL DVDs. So far I haven't been able to figure out how to get this player to play my PAL DVDs. There's a white sticker on the front of the box that says, "CODEFREE DVD 012345678 PAL/NTSC." However, there's nothing on the box or in the instructions, that says the player will play PAL. It only says this on the sticker that's been added to the box. Also, the supposedly new player came with a beaten-up Disney DVD already in it. I definitely feel ripped off, Eileen O'Sullivan
