I have recently purchased an old Electrohome ECP 4000 CRT projector and enjoy using it tremendously even though my set up and experience level are seriously lacking. Here's the problem - the ECP 4000 works great with cable TV, VCR,and Sony Playstation but gets this annoying image shake when I attach a DVD player. The interesting thing I just discovered is that this image shake does not occur with all DVD's. My children's DVD's (maybe becuse they were originally recorded for TV?) seem to work fine. It is only when I pop in a film DVD (with Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.) that the image shake begins.
I have absolutely no experience with this type of problem so please assume total ignorance in your reply. I have read the instruction manual which was very little help as it was written before the dawn of the DVD player. Could it be a Sync rate problem (that is what someone told me but I cannot seem to adjust it?) Could it be my cables - I am using standard RCA cables with BNC adaptors. The manual refers to a "multi standard decoder" - what is that? And could it be what I need? As you can tell I am really just grasping at straws here as I have no experience with these matters. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Patrick
