This VCR can output SECAM as PAL, so it's not an issue. The only SECAM it does not do is the special French SECAM that requires a VCR from France.
It can output
PAL as PAL
PAL as NTSC (not suggested)
SECAM as PAL
SECAM as NTSC (not suggested)
SECAM as SECAM
NTSC as NTSC (not the best NTSC player, so not suggested -- the JVC SR plays NTSC better, being an NTSC S-VHS VCR)
NTSC as PAL
I don't remember if it does
NTSC as SECAM
PAL as SECAM
.... don't know a good reason for this anyway.
PAL and SECAM are almost the same anyway. The framerate and resolution matches, and that's the big worry with format conversion. PAL and SECAM mostly differ in how color data is stored, and the VCR sorts that out for you.
Digital video no longer has format-specific color systems, all colour is now stored as standard luma and chroma data. Color has become format agnostic.
