There aren't problems. When I bought my first Zenith Parkhurst, in Italy we still had the analog television, so I could watch only DVD with my player, but now there aren't problems, every Digital Decoder works with PAL or NTSC standards without problems. My Zenith is in my living room and works perfectly, of more I have a RCA CTC5 and a zenith porthole B&W. I'm a good technician and restorer and I know all the tv standards.
