Thanks Robin. The Monitor that I was going to use is a Samsung TV so
probably will need another monitor. Saw a LG TV monitor at a flea market
for $120 used. Seller said it does PAL.

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.

HDMI is not concerned by PAL/NTSC issues. It should work fine.
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*Jérémie Marsin*
it says that their TV's made for the North American market dont work with
PAL. Does that sound right to you?

Thank you. If anybody has any other suggestions please let me know.
Most televisions that take HDMI input handle PAL properly.
