Yes you do. Since the signal is in PAL-DV format already, it needs to go to a PAL vcr. I'm not sure where you are from, but in the US, the vcr's are strictly NTSC unless you order one from a box house (online wholesaler).

Thanks for your reply.

I'm in Denver Colorado. So if I can buy a PAL VCR, hook it up to my Canopus ADVC-100 which is hooked up to my computer, then I should be able to play back the video from VV30c and record to a VHS tape, right?

I also make my own DVDs using DVDit software and a Pioneer A04 recorder. If I render an MPEG2 file in PAL format from VV30c, then burn a PAL layout DVD in DVDit, that should work ok, right?

Ron, I have 2 Panasonic AG-W1 units from panasonic that are multistandard, which means you can play back or record from one format and convert to another. Example is: play NTSC videotape and convert to PAL output, play PAL tape and convert to NTSC, et. Here is a link that shows the newest one from Panasonic. A little pricey, but check around for a used AG-W1. We convert videotapes as part of our business and use them both regularly. Some cheaper units only convert the signal internally to let you watch the output, but mine will let you select any variety of inputs and convert to any other variety of outputs. This is because of its internal standards converter which the cheaper ones dont always have. If you plan on doing very much conversion from one standard to another, the money is well invested. If you are doing just a PAL to PAL copy just a few times, a PAL machine may be cheaper way to go.If you have any questions, please let me know and I can give you my email address and we can correspond further. I live in Iowa. You can do what you are planning to do just fine. The dvd shouldnt be a problem either. The link below is for informational purposes, I just did a search on Panasonic's line of multistandard VCR's, but havent purchased anything from thes guys.

I have a Daewoo DVD / VCR combo deck that will playback either NTSC or PAL DVDs on either a NTSC or PAL television. It will convert PAL to NTSC or NTSC to PAL on the fly. I suspect that the VCR does both formats as well, but it doesn't specify this in the manual. This deck has a DVD to VCR dubbing feature as well that works as long as the DVD doesn't have the Macrovision copy protection.

I suspect that I could set the deck to PAL, burn a PAL DVD-R, ignore the squiggly lines on the TV, and make a decent PAL video cassette. Once my schedule clears up a little, I'll give it a shot.
