Hey all. Just bought a new Panny CP72 and have noticed a faint horizontal line rapidly moving from the bottom to the top of the screen whenever I use Component out. This problem only happens with Component, and I've tried numerous sources and cables just to make certain that it's the DVD player that's the problem.
Has anyone else noticed this problem? The player functions perfectly otherwise and I'm hoping that there's just some setting that I've missed ... but I've tried everything through the setup menu and nothing seems to get that flicker away. I'm using an old Sony Vega 27 TV until I upgrade to progressive, and so the problem is coming out whenever I output interlaced video through Component.
If anyone else has the player, I'm seeing the flicker most during grey scenes, like the shot of the Mordor Volcano at the opening of Lord of the Rings. It's made the cave scenes in that movie virtually unwatchable. Playing the same scene through my XBox with the same cables doesn't result in any flicker at all ... on the Panny that line flickers even when the player is paused.
Any ideas?
