I just gave one of my friends in Denmark a US version of the Nintendo WII. He is able to connect the game to his BeoVision LE6000 just fine, but the picture appears in black and white. I believe this is due to the US WII outputting an NTSC signal. And I think this tv is too old to handle both NTSC and PAL as do most tv's made in the past 5 years. Is there an NTSC to PAL converter available in Denmark that can make the WII signal compatible with the BeoVision LE6000? Thanks.

NTSC to PAL Converter in Denmark?

The reason is because the NTSC colour sub-carrier is 4.43 MHz instead of 3.58 MHz.
You are right that more up to date TV's will handle this, so you will need a converter.
You need something like the converter HERE

Thanks, Keith. Also, is it correct to assume that the BeoVision LE6000 does not support progressive scanning or acceptance of component inputs on the SCART sockets? In other words, setting the WII to output in 480p mode to a component video cable would do no good in the case of the LE6000.
