For whatever reason, computer monitors with HDMI input more often handle
50 hz fine, and HDMI TVs are a lot more picky. Almost seems like a
deliberate limitation made by the TV manufacturers.
All you can do is test it with the various monitors/TVs you already own,
and if none work, do research before buying another.

Ok Robin, that means I will need to buy a monitor that does PAL in North America.

HDMI is still concerned about 50 Hz vs 60 Hz video though, which
are a legacy of PAL/NTSC.
Many modern HD TVs sold in North America don't accept a 50 hz
("PAL") HDMI signal. Unfortunately, it still matters.

It only matters with composite/svideo. Even pure rgb is stripped
out of any region issues.

Hi, I have some Samsung TV/Monitors and according to the
Samsung website it says that their TV's made for the North
American market dont work with PAL. Does that sound right to
you?

Most televisions that take HDMI input handle PAL properly.
