DV-250 Standalone SVCD Flickers

[WickedDevils]

I have followed the tutorial for SVCD to DVD a few times on multiple movies hoping it was the movie, but it isn't. For some reason when I put the DVD+RW into the DV-250, the screen flickers and it is in black and white. VCDs have played fine but SVCDs have not. I was wondering how I may fix it. Please Help..

BTW. According to the compatibility the DV-250 SHOULD play svcds.

SOunds like a NTSC/PAL problem.

Which format is the source video?
What svcd to dvd method did you use? What tools and settings.

The original file I am going from is an SVCD. But I am trying to make it into the DVD video to play on the DVD player, since nero, ulead, etc won't let you burn SVCD to DVDs. Therefore I am following the https://www.videohelp.com/svcddvdr.htm tutorial. I followed the tutorial step by step.

Hmm.. I just put the DVD in my DVD-RW to make sure it was going fine and it only shows half the screen. Kinda weird EH? I'm not sure why that is. When I open the original it displays it all the way across. It seems to be cutting the movie horizontally.
