Dear all,
I am a Brazilian, currently living in Holland as an expatriate for a period of about 3 years.
I have very recently decided to install a home theater. Off course, whatever equipment I buy here would need to work Ok also when I go back to Brazil.
As you may know, the color system in Brazil is PAL-M, different from all others, whereas the color system in Holland is PAL.
I was wondering: Which of the home theater devices are subject to color system?
I have the following pieces of a puzzle that I need to combine while designing my home theater:
1) A DVD that outputs at PAL-M and NTSC
2) A Camcorder that outputs at NTSC
3) A Nintendo Video Cube, purchased in Brazil that must ouput at PAL-M, but has also a digital (component) output
4) A VCR that outputs at PAL-M or NTSC
5) A TV set (that I may just use as a back-up as I want to buy a front projector) that is able to reproduce PAL-M or NTSC
6) I need to be able to watch Dutch TV from cable
7) I need to be able to watch Brazilian TV from cable
8) I want to avoid expending a lot of money in buying stuff here in Holand that will not work when I get back to Brazil
So, my question is: What should I pay atention at while projecting my home theater with respect to the color system? Which equipments are affected by this factor?
Thanks in advance for your help.
