Peter (and list),

We recently had a French faculty member come with a SECAM DV cassette.  We
were unable to convert it and ended up having to send it back to France to
get a VHS version of the tape.  I'm assuming the tape you're getting is one
of those little DV cassettes in PAL format.  You might have more luck with
PAL, but I did a lot of checking around and found no place to do the SECAM
conversion.  If you find a place, please let us know.

Thanks,

Dan
