Need Help/Information on Video Formats

Posted By: Seamus

Which format should I order for videos to be played on American machines, PAL or NTSC?

I know that European tapes and TV's are not compatible with the USA and tapes have to be converted, but I don't know about Australia.

I ordered some tapes and either the format is wrong or the timing section of the tape got damaged or magnetized.

What happens is that the tape plays too fast and it looks like a blank picture, however when I slow the tape down I get vivid pictures but it's too slow and no sound.

I want to order more tapes but I'd like to find out if the format was wrong or the tapes were damaged in shipment, before I do.

Any help you can give on this would be appreciated. Thanks
