Default PAL vs NTSC
I have a question, i have a friend who has a VHS tape that is in PAL format and it will not play in a NTSC VCR. I'm goign to Spain in 12 days and i know that they also run in PAL so i am wondering if i buy a VCR that is PAL and plug it inot a TV that is NTSC, will i be able to see what is on the VHS tape, or would i also have to have a PAL TV to view the tape?

If anybody knows that would be great...

Thanks!

Virtually every new VCR and TV will play both PAL and NTSC and swap between them automatically. Certainly my TV and VCR can anyway as I have a few old imported US VHS tapes which play fine. Your friend was unlucky in that his VCR isn't one of them.
