Problem with PAL DVD / DVD-SVCD bu not PAL SVCD...

[jimcgr2]

Hi,

I have a Pioneer DV-333 and a Sony Wega TV. Bought in US/Canada.

I have no problem to watch a PAL SVCD - 480 x 576 - 25fps.

However, any PAL DVD I try to watch will make the image loop verticaly. Even the menu on the PAL DVD will cause this. I just tried a PAL DVD-SVCD with the exact same movie spec as on a PAL SVCD that does work on my system ( 480 x 576 - 25 fps) and it causes the same problem.

Any idea of why my DVD Player and/or TV would have a problem to deal with a PAL movie on a DVD but not on a SVCD ???

This is killing me!

Thanks!

Did you figure this out? I have the same problem. Same player, DV-333. I played PAL SVCD fine, but the avi file i converted to DVD (pal, 25 fps) does the flip thing, and the video is black and white. Is that how yours is?
