>You were right the first time. France is on SECAM. (like with all French
culture: "Something Entirely Contrary to the American Method").
I don't know who was saying PAL-M, but it isn't right. Or maybe PAL-M is used
in France, but it is not the broadcast standard.<
Oh, NOW I'm getting a headache… :-/
I was looking at a world broadcast chart in some store, which Panasonic puts
out for their multistandard VCR (not the AG-1, but another model), and *it*
said that France uses PAL-M same as Brazil. Of course, I *do* remember seeing
another world broadcast chart (for the Aiwa, I think) that said France uses
SECAM….
Is it possible even the French don't know what they're using? 😉
Confused,
Tim
