World TV Standards & Supertext
Television standards differ throughout the world. Australia employs the PAL system in video production and television transmission (as opposed to NTSC prevalent in the United States). Please ensure you are able to play PAL standard video tapes before placing your order. World Television Standards are listed below.
* Almost all of the videos available at the ABC Shop Online are in PAL format. However, we do offer a number of videos for the US based NTSC format.
* Click here to view available NTSC titles.
* Additionally, some VCRs are capable of playing both NTSC and PAL material. Please consult your user manual to see if your equipment is multi-format capable.
* Selected titles are available in SuperText format for the hearing impaired.
* A list of SuperText titles may be requested via email. Click here to email a question.
