I am moving to India next year and wanted to know about VCRs - what kind do they use there? I have a 3 year old and if we need to get a different kind of VCR I want to try to get some tapes made of his favorites videos before we go.

Hi,

The VHS standard works in india. the signal that TVs usually accept are PAL. though there are many VCRs that have NTSC playback on PAL TV (depends on what VCR you have). YOu also should be aware that 220 Volts is required (not the US standard).

If yo r tarvelling form Europe/Asia it shoudl be OK to play back your Videos in India. If you are from US then it might be little concern, but then again you can get TVs that play back NTSC format too (you just need to be a sure that you pick the right TV).

Regards
Nitin
