If we get the freeview box, will this convert from NTSC to PALS? (or is it the other way? you know what I mean) Will we get TV stations??
I just wanted to confirm before I spent $$ on this
I think (emphasise that word!) you will be OK, because obviously the freeview box will pick up the stations and then you'll be passing that straight to your TV's display, bypassing its internal NTSC tuner. I've used a UK TV (that couldn't tune to NZ stations via the aerial socket) with a Sky box in NZ and it worked fine.
