I have a problem with the RF video output of some of my
old micros. The use
either american or Japanese version of NTSC on VHF/UHF, and all my equipment
is PAL compatible.
I have the same problem, with some old French micros, that use SECAM RF
output only.
I am looking for converters but I cannot find any. Could anybody help me?
There are many NTSC to PAL converters out there. J&R sells a few I know.
They can also be had for fairly cheap ($40 and up).
Other formats or conversion directions are a different story. PAL to NTSC
is also fairly easy to find, but prices tend to start closer to $200. And
anything dealing with SECAM is going to be more costly, and more
difficult to locate (usually at that point, you end up getting a
universal converter, and spend $500 or more).
A slightly bigger problem might be getting one that works with a VHF
signal... most of the ones I have seen expect it to be line composite.
