Only if you can generate a modulated PAL signal somehow. The PVR-350
cannot, it does not contain a (re-)modulator. If you have a multi
standard VCR you should be able to generate a PAL signal, if you use a
recorded PAL encoded program. No multi-standard VCR will do standard
conversion. Another option is a multi-standard DVD player where you can
set the output to PAL. That will generate a valid PAL signal.
