This review is from: TV Video System Converter NTSC to PAL for All Video Systems (Video Game)

I bought this product because I have an old tv set which only accept Pal-M signal and some video equipments I have and want to connect to it are delivering NTSC signal.
When I first used this converter I was disapointed because the images keept showing with no colour.
Since I could not return it anymore I decided to open it and found out that the output crystal (the component which converts the frequency of the video signal)is of 4.43 Mhz which is suitable for Pal B, G, D, and I but not for Pal-M or Pal-N.
I removed that Crystal and replaced by one Pal-M frequency taken from an old VCR, which is not working anymore.
Now I have colour on my tv. The image is a bit blur but very acceptable.
For anyone who has this similar problem, you only need to locate the 4.43 crystal very near to the output conectors and replaced it by the one for you colour system.
3.575611MHz for PAL-M
3.582056MHz for PAL-N

The conclusion is that the product description is wrong. Here is what it says.
"The NTSC to PAL Converter converts any NTSC (3.58/4,43) signal into a PAL signal (any PAL B,D,I,G,M,N)."
As I mentioned it can only convert to B,G,D and I. You will need to make the modification I did.

This review is from: TV Video System Converter NTSC to PAL for All Video Systems (Video Game)

I have DVD player with pal output, in order to switch to NTSC signal I need to see display on TV to access setting menu, Unfortunately the scan rate is different from TV, it can not see steady picture on screen and noway to set it to NTSC. I bought this item for converting PAL to NTSC the results is the same, it doesn;t work at all!
