You can try adjusting the tracking. I don't think it will do much for
you. What I think the real problem is, the field scan rate for region
1 is 60 Hz.

If you were using analog television systems, you would not be able to
have vertical lock or visible colour. What you really need is a VCR
that can handle 60 Hz field rate. Then if your TV cannot properly
handle NTSC, you will need a standards converter.

Hi,

I live in Australia so have the PAL system I have a Samsung DVD/VCR
combo DVD-V6800(brand new) & an NEC TV RH1777. (Old) When I play an
NTSC video tape & a Region 1 DVD I have a flickering band at bottom of
picture that appears to be the current TV station picture. *I have
played the video in my old player (Panasonic) with the same results.
I have played the DVD in a LG DVD recorder & it is fine - no band. On
both DVD & Video the picture is fine. *Just the annoying band at the
bottom. Please help. *The videos are 2 of my favourites that I could
only buy on the Internet in NTSC format. It has been asked are the NEC
& Samsung machines compatible. ???
Thank You
