If u don't have a PAL tv u need a convertor or the image wil just flicker constantly and be in black and white. Don't look on Ebay for an all-region player. Some dvd players have region code hacks that allow you to watch PAL dvd's. The Philips DVP 642 is very popular, only like $70.

Here's the hack: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks.php?select=Philips+DVP+642

And another link, look at this first

this is the one i was looking at...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5784775993&rd=...

it says
"GUARANTEED TO PLAY ALL REGION DVDS ON YOUR TV

NTSC and PAL compatible

Best PAL TO NTSC CONVERSION UPTO 12 MB"

doesnt this mean it will play on my NTSC tv? i went to a few review sites and it says it will play eiter PAL or NTSC DVDs on PAL or NTSC tvs

I sent a message to the seller but it seems he doesn't know himself or he's busy.
