If you've found yourself in a situation where you're using a foreign TV, or, using a foreign Blu-ray Player with your TV, you probably have a dilemma. See, most electronics are designed to be used specifically in the country or region where they're purchased. They're compatible with the local color system which determines how the picture is decoded and recreated on your TV screen. If your TV, cable box or Blu-ray player is foreign, they're probably not compatible. But don't worry, if you don't own a
Multisystem TVs or
Region-Free Blu-ray Player, there's another solution - the international video converter.
What Is An International Video Converter?
An international video converter allows you to easily connect a TV, cable box, satellite TV system, gaming system or Blu-ray Player to one another so they two can be compatible. They literally bridge the gap between the three main color systems - PAL, NTSC, and Secam.
How Does An International Video Converter Work?
The converters are plug & play. Most of them feature worldwide voltage, meaning they can be used anywhere with any voltage from 110 volts up to 240 volts. Depending on the model, international video converters utilize standard HDMI, component, analog composite (RCA), or a S-Video cables. The signal originates from your input source (TV signal/cable/Blu-ray Player) and is fed into the converter and then out of the converter and into your TV. What's happening in the converter is complicated, but in simple terms it's preparing everything for the proper format used by your TV. Some converters even improve the quality of the picture by up-scaling to the highest possible resolution for your TV - however that depends on the model you're using.
