So, when I found out that the HV20 I purchased on eBay from a guy in Sydney was an NTSC model I thought… damn it!

But… I came across this forum explaining how to successfully hack the firmware of the HV30 to allow it to be switched between PAL and NTSC. You can check it out here.

On the bright side, they are researching the same kind of hack for the HV20.

Crossing fingers.

UPDATE: Note the log entry made on the forum on 15 August:

“The HV20 is on its way here, it should arrive sometime next week, I have already prepared the HV30 firmware for injection, fingers crossed!”

  1. Hiya, I’m really glad I have found this info. Today bloggers publish just about gossips and internet and this is really irritating. A good web site with interesting content, this is what I need. Thank you for keeping this web site, I’ll be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.
