If a DVD player plays PAL or SECAM media (in addition to NTSC), can it be hooked into and displayed on an NTSC TV?
Probably that's an oxymoron, but you never know.

SUMMARY
A DVD player that supports PAL or SECAM formats can only display NTSC content on an NTSC television. While NTSC DVDs will play without issue, PAL DVDs will not be compatible with an NTSC TV due to the differing signal formats. Users with multi-region DVD players can successfully play NTSC DVDs on PAL televisions, demonstrating the importance of understanding format compatibility in media playback.
