I have a Phillips Magnavox 32" TV (not sure of exact model number). I started noticing a strange display issue when watching something in S-video. Here's a picture.
The yellow arrows I added, but those strange almost 3d looking bars scroll up the screen and cycle over again every 5 seconds or so.
I have tried connecting directly to the TV with all the different S-video cables I have for my devices and still the same thing happens. So I don't know if this means it's the TV itself. All my S-video cables are inexpensive (under $20) if that makes a difference, since I see some go for some hefty prices.
So has anyone seen this before and know what it is? I don't really know how long this has been happening. It's hard to see most of the time in live action movies but in animation it becomes much more noticable because of the static colors. I'm pretty sure I didn't start noticing this until after I got my surround sound setup so I don't know if possibly there is some kind of interference happening here or something. Any kind of advice would be appreciated, I really don't want to have to buy a whole new TV just for this issue because it works fine otherwise.
