NTSC (National Television System Committee) and PAL
(Phase Alternating Line) are two published standards
that determine how video signals are transmitted, received,
and processed in different parts of the world. The
United States, Canada, and many countries in
North and South America utilize NTSC. PAL is
the video standard commonly found in
Europe, Asia, and Australia (see
next page).
Your JD-TV108 is not capable of receiving PAL broadcasts or PAL
cable transmissions, but it can play most PAL DVDs, were you ever
to encounter them through foreign travel or exchange. Viewing a
DVD recorded in the PAL format is subsequently discussed in this
Quick Guide and in the User Manual. Your JD-TV108 is capable of
playing all NTSC DVDs.
