Dear All,

Unfortunately the standardization of television signals are _not_ so
good. VHS is the format of the casettes, but PAL is the colour system.
PAL is used in Europe, except for France, where they have a third system
(of course). The French system SECAM is not compatible with all the
others.

PAL (Phase Alternating Lines) is a development of NTSC (Never The Same
Colour) ;-)

I'll make a poll with some of the Ada-organisations in Europe as well as
the board of Ada Europe. It is probably best to have Ada Europe take care
of the European market.


/Lars
