If you want to do one tape I sugest to go to a store that does that
type of conversion.
Could you easily find a store in the US that does NTSC to PAL
conversion? The other way round is more likely.
At one time I knew of three, but I moved from that small town. One
was a professional video duplication house that only worked with VHS &
U-matic, while the others converted almost anything from 8 mm film, to
foreign tape formats.
As I said earlier it depends on what quality you want the conversion done
to - a proper one cost a lot of money. But a camera on a monitor will do
the conversion - that's how early broadcast ones worked.
Some TV stations have the capability to import foreign tape formats
to NTSC time base corrected video and can record in NTSC VHS format, if
yo know someone in the video engineering department.
Indeed - my former employer had a full blown standards convertor which
cost 100s of thousands of pounds. How else did you get to watch
Benny Hill? ;-)
On BBC America.
