Page 1 of MATSUI 28" Pure Flatscreen TV Model 28WF10 NTSC-Compatible HELP???

Please can anyone help me as I`m wanting to buy this model from my local store and would like to know if it will automatically switch to NTSC from PAL when I run my Grundig GDV 210A multi-region DVD player.

I have heard that some TV`s play only in black and white when playing a multi-region DVD film through it and don`t want to buy the wrong model type.

My old Matsui widescreen TV played just fine with multi-region films and converted them to colour automatically, but I have already been in my local store with little help and they showed me the manual but there was no information about NTSC from PAL of this kind in there.

Please can anyone out there help me desperately, perhaps someone already has this model of TV and is running multi-region films on it ok.

many thanks

I am 99% sure that it it is a new TV it will work with NTSC DVD`s fine.

The thing you need to check is your DVD player. It should have a setting in the menu or a switch on the back for PAL, NTSC and maybe Auto Picture output. Make sure it set to PAL all the time and it should be fine.

The only problem you would have is if the TV only did NTSC 4.43MHz AND the DVD player could not output RGB or PAL60.

If the TV does pure NTSC 3.58MHz then the DVD player can be set to Auto NTSC or RGB, and your region 1 DVDs will play.

If the TV only does NTSC 4.43MHz you will need to see if the DVD can output PAL60, or RGB.

Just been to http://www.homecinemachoice.com/testbench/frame.html?http://www.homecinemachoice.com/testbench/fullreport.shtml the review of your DVD player says it can output RGB so you`ll be fine!
