NTSC video cassette playback

When using a pre-recorded NTSC video cassette tape, the
connected TV set must operate with a 60 Hz vertical frequency.
Otherwise the on-screen picture will be affected by vertical
rolling. Even if your VCR set is capable of processing NTSC video
signals, the picture may be shortened vertically (appearance of
black bars at the top and at the bottom of the TV screen). The
dubbing of a NTSC video cassette tape to a standard PAL VCR
is not possible.
