the vcr and dvd is all ready set up on it I have never actually try to play pal in it I do know the unit it self is a bunch of junk. After 4 months the vcr went out of it and half the time the dvd doesn't record on it and since most all are copy right now it is really just throwing your money away. I brought me a old VCR from amazon and I can record everything on it and tough it may not be high def and the picture might not be crystal clear I can record anything.

Panasonic DMP-BD91 was designated to play BD-A and DVD-1 and will not play PAL There is however hardware modified version of this player sold by world-import.com at much higher price. This information is not intended as a solicitation of world-import.com products but only to provide Amazon customer answer to question pertaining region free and other format DVD media playability of this unit.

There is nothing in the manual about switching to PAL. The manuel only mentions support from areas using NTSC.

Yes it Does Play PAL discs, BUT, they have to be ALL region or region A/1. Same with DVD's, if they are all region PAL, it WILL play it.gerard masters

All I know, I can play DVD from both US and Indonesia. I tried with some other US DVD player and I cannot play any Indonesia DVD (somebody told me, most of US DVD Player can only read NTSC, while mine most likely is PAL) So I just drew conclusion, it should be compatible with any type of DVD

I've read people complain of this, but I cannot find where on the write ups this player says its multi-regional.Both the Sony website and the users manual say explicitly this player is only for region 1.

I looked all through the manual and the manual is very clear that it does not support PAL in the DVD portion of the device -- only NTSC. I could find no words or mention about PAL in the VCR portion, but am convinced that it does not support PAL. There are no options to select PAL or NTSC, so that pretty well tells the story. Sorry.

The manual that came in the box specifically says it won't play PAL, but my Region 2 DVDs are PAL, and they play beautifully.

Yes, you can connect & see DVDs from different regions if your Player is multi- system. For me, I get DVDs even from over seas & played with no problem except few DVD. My other suggestion is, you can directly insert the DVDS & play. The time you posted this question, I tried to connect with two players. One in A/V & the other with HDMI & both works fine. Hope it helps.

PAL is European , right? The European DVDs will play, but NOT the blurays. It only plays blurays from the USA.

No, I did my research after reading your question, and it looks like Blu-Ray uses a "region coding" system similar to DVD players.But if you're desperate to play PAL DVDs, Amazon's independent sellers have a lot of players that are region free, and you can get them for cheap. I got one for $50, and it's played any DVD I've thrown at it, regardless of region.

Did you ever find out if it would play PAL format DVDs? I wonder it as well, i have one and i want to buy something on PAL format but i am afraid that once i buy it the player will not play them. Anyone know?

The BDP-150 did play the PAL dvds that i own.I didn't have any PAL Blu-Rays to sample.Hope this helps.

From what I find, this player should have no problem in playing any normal VHS through. PAL refers to a different format of tape called Betamax (also called Beta) and for those tapes, you actually need a different type player or Beta player.
