Hello,

I just got a new standalone player (Sharp 740U) and I am finding that some of my CD-R discs will not play correctly. I can't quite seem to narrow down the problem, but the symptoms are that on certain SVCDs the image will flip out of control with no vertical hold, and what I can see of the image is not in color. Other SVCDs that I have play perfectly... Could this be a difference between PAL formatting and NTSC perhaps? Any help or clues would be greatly appreciated.
