    Not if you are thinking of viewing a PAL recording on an NTSC machine. or the other way around.

    But if you have a blank tape and want to record on it then it should be no problem since thaey are the same.

    Only option is to get a "world" vcr that can handle all tv-systems...at least as far as I know...

    Almost. NTSC recordings run faster so a PAL tape will run out quicker if used to make an NTSC recording.
