The player needs to be able to take PAL. Some players can take both, some are NTSC only, and some are PAL only.

I am not sure how to find out. Are the tapes the same size? I have a JVC deck with mini DV and VHS SR-VS20
Thank you!

The tapes are the same size but PAL is 25fs at 720 x 576. So your player will only recognise it and be able to play it back if it is PAL compatible.
I can't find anything that says that your machine can handle PAL. Do you have a manual that might say for sure?
