Buying electronics in the US for use in Nepal

Friends,

I am thinking of buying a DVD recorder/player here in the US and sending it to Nepal.  Obviously, the issue of different voltage requirement is there (US uses 120V whereas Nepal uses 240V), but that can be mitigated by utilizing voltage converter.  What I am concerned about is the DVD formatting.  I understand Nepal falls under different DVD region, similar to NTSC vs. PAL scenario, which leads me to wonder whether this DVD recorder will actually work in Kathmandu.  Has any of you bought DVD recorder or DVR in the US and used it in Nepal?  If so, mind sharing your experience? 

Thanks.
