NTSC<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=527452812-26022003><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have a location
in Belgium that we have a few AG setup's and I was wondering if the PAL format
will work with that setup? In the past we have shipped NTSC to the
location but we are moving to buying direct in the country for
equipment. The vendor can get PAL but they are not sure of
NTSC. Would anyone that has tried PAL have any thoughts or can
they confirm it works? I have tried this conversion with a vBrick during
testing and it did not work.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
