Want to buy an NTSC VCR in the UK |
|
|
Hi,
I have a bunch of old NTSC videos from North America that I want to
capture and convert to DVD on my PC. Unfortunately it seems that the
NTSC playback feature on most UK PAL VCRs is not a suitable output for
most consumer grade capture devices (I've tried a few!). So,
basically I am looking for EITHER a proper NTSC output VCR or a PAL
VCR that outputs an NTSC video in true PAL.
Anyone know of a source where I might be able to buy the above? Any
recommendations for a brand? I am going home to Canada for a few
weeks at Christmas, so I may just pick up a cheap one there and use a
voltage convertor back here, but I'd like to have one sooner than
that.
Regards,
Tyson Cooper

Bloody shame it's not at bargain price.
Couldn't find one cheaper than 340 GBP (which probably is still a good
price for what it can do).
