Author Topic: Shindler Lifts Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 12-23-2002 11:56 AM                        It is not sufficient if just the TV is NTSC compatible! The tape speed of the two systems is different too. However, it should not be too difficult to find a VCR which can play both systems. Most film fans I know have VCRs which can be switched from PAL to NTSC so they can watch American or Japanese videos.  |  IP: Logged Matthew Bailey Master Film Handler Posts: 461 From: Port Arthur,TX Registered: Sep 2000 posted 12-23-2002 12:18 PM                     Come to think of it, I've seen vintage/antique Otis items on Ebay.  |  IP: Logged David Favel Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 764 From: Ashburton, New Zealand Registered: Feb 2002 posted 12-23-2002 02:11 PM                     O.K. I will add that 2 of my 3 vhs machines are NTSC compatable. Really it should be no big deal to send over your tapes.  |  IP: Logged Chris Markiewicz Expert Film Handler Posts: 209 From: Glenaviegh, County Tipperary, Ireland Registered: Aug 2002 posted 12-23-2002 02:49 PM                     Gerald, A resort hotel I worked in a few years ago used to rent the entire hotel to a large temple from LA over Passover. They would reprogram all their elevators so that they would cycle up and down automatically, stopping at every floor. Chris  |  IP: Logged
