VIDEO COLOUR SYSTEMS...

All videos on this site, unless otherwise stated, is under the PAL colour system. Most new VCRs on the market today come out as multi-system, meaning they can play back any colour system. If this is the case, read no further as you know you can buy just what you want. Europe and some other areas work on PAL. If you are not sure where you fit in look on the back of some of the videos in your current collection. On the back of the video case it should mention somewhere "Colour system: PAL". If it mentions something else (e.g. NTSC, Mesecam) then the videos will not function correctly on your VCR or television.

DVD REGIONS...

There are six world Regions for DVD.

Discs manufactured in one region will usually only play on players that were manufactured in the same region, so discs bought in the USA will not play on U.K. players and vice versa.

However, the regional coding system is entirely optional and discs without Regional Codes will play on any player in any country.

Please check the map below to make sure our DVDs will be able to play on your DVD machine. Please check your DVD manual, or with the manufacturer, if in doubt.
