How to make US TV work in India

I bought Samsung 40 inch LED TV from US to India.

Here is the simple 2 steps to make it work in india:

STEP 1:
Voltage difference:
US 110, India 240.
So i bought a step down transformer (~ Rs. 1000).
Watch out for the capacity(watt)



STEP 2:
Video format difference-
US: NTSC , India: PAL
As expected directly connecting cable to TV did not work.
solution 1: So i used in-cable set top box from my local cable operator for few months.
luckily it had output setting support for both NTSC and PAL.

solution 2: i changed my house so now i am using dishTV DTH connection.
the truHD set-top box is working well for me.



solution 3: one of my friend had bought PAL to NTSC video converter from bombay ( ~Rs: 8000) and is working fine for him.
