I've received a DV tape, made in Europe, with a PAL camcorder.
I've tried to copy the video, using a NTSC US camcorder, and a PC with firewire.
The picture is scrambled, square blocks are all shifted.
Is that an impossible operation, or am I just missing a setting ? (which one ?)
Thanks, |

Get a Mac and use iMovie to import. I did this almost 2 years ago, and it works flawless. iMovie even converts from PAL to NTSC on export. Beautiful. |

Is there a NTSC-Mini DV or PAL-mini DV tape, are they the same, just a universal format which can be use in Pal-camcoder and NTSC-camcoder ? |

The tape is the same, different frame size and timebase. You will usually get higher quality video on PAL. There's a great technical resource at this site: http://www.adamwilt.com/DV-tech.html |

I have an NTSC videocamera. Sometimes I go to Europe and would like to hook my camcorder to a PAL TV to share videos. Was told it may work right away without anything in between. What other optiona can I have? Thanks, Francesco |
