Video playback technologies are not uniform throughout the world. There are three primary standards in which video content can originate: NTSC; PAL; or SECAM. The standard is typically determined by the regional origin of the video master. Countries in North America, Central America and parts of South America, as well as Japan and other Asian countries, typically use the NTSC standard. European countries tend to use the PAL standard, with the notable exception of France, which developed the SECAM standard.
