will it work with TV's in Europe and Africa they use a different system?

The TVGuardian will only work in North America on programs that are closed-captioned. The TVGuardian monitors the hidden closed-caption information to detect and mute profanity. Thanks, -Family Safe Support

Joseph, I am not quite sure. I know it will not work in Australia because the TV guardian uses the NTSC video standard (North American video standard) and Australia uses PAL. It is possible that it will not work outside of North America. I don't know for sure though.

I'm not sure because I'm in America. You may have to write the TV Guardian Company and ask them because they do not have a number on their website. I only thought they had different electronic plugs because Americans have to buy adapters to use their electronics over there. You may have to Google/research if our broadcasting systems are different or not too. I hope it works out for you.

Absolutely John. I have used it in Germany, Australia and Japan without issues. (Don't forget to adjust the Hertz from 60 to 50 if need be for the TV. The power supply auto adjusts.)Greg

I hope this 28-day reply is in time to reach you. The short answer is that no, it will not work in Europe. (Well, technically, it will work, but your friend in Europe will not be able to watch it on his TV; he'd have to be satisfied with watching it off the camera's screen. Which I doubt he would. There is no easy (read not expensive) way to convert NTSC (ours) and PAL (theirs) equipment. Some expensive video editing software can convert it, but it's just too much of a hassle. In other words, send him the money and have him buy what he wants over there.

with regard to the US vs European platforms, it will work. the problem is the 110/220v differences. i would buy a new one in germany that's got the proper plug and electrical current.

I don't honestly know if this adapter would work in other areas of Africa. My experience was in South Africa only, but it worked fine throughout South Africa.

Jadach,This model supports the U.S. standard of 110v/60Hz and NTSC broadcasts. We can't guarantee compatibility in other regions, although these specifications would be a good start to determine if it will work at all in the Kenya region. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

It should work. I haven't tried it, so I cna't confirm 100%. Yes, the PS3 isn't region encoded, so it should work. PAL and NTSC have no bearing on the PS3. From what I remember, HDTVs are HDTVs, no matter where you buy them. PAL and NTSC referred to analog TVs and such. Not HDTV. So, in short, it should work.

I do not know but I would doubt it as the EU uses a different current system, different plugs, etc. I am guessing that the company makes a model for use in the EU.

My guess is that it should work, I've used mine in Europe and it worked fine. Hop this helps maybe someone who's been to the Middle East would know more.

Mine works perfectly well in South Africa, and I love it...because we watch my American TV in South Africa!

From the setup wizard on the device was country selection, so yes, I feel confident it will work in Europe.

It is if you have a 220 to 110 converter like they have in europe. that is the only way it will work

You will need the European version running on 220V and British TV standard.

No it will not. You have to buy video converter from NTSC (American system) to PAL (Europe system). There is pleny good once on Amazon and they are only good for cable tv in Europe, I could not find any which can convert signal over the air to the tv. If you buy europian blu ray player or dvd player, most of those converters will also convert it's signal to your American tv. Dont be sorry to spend extra money for expency one with pleny inputs and outputs. Also you will need transformer from 220AC to 120 AC unless this tv can work on 120 and 220 AC. Some they do, like modt of the Apple's products. This is still chiper option then buy electronic in Europe!

Yes it does work. I've used it in the UK. I've just plugged it in on all three settings and the plug fits on all three. However, I have not used it on the European setting.

No, it probably won't for a few reasons. One, this will require drivers that your television PROBABLY can't support. Two, the USB on most TVs is usually, but not always, for factory diagnostics and loading of firmware.

Yes! We only use ours to play DVDs from Europe - it should work just fine :)
