... is when the actor pops from the right side of the screen to the left w/o running through the center. Or, somebody slowly moves their head & it looks like they have Parkinsons disease. The frame in between wasn't expanded in time to project. Thus, it was dropped & the last one was played twice instead.A lot of digital cable is doing that now too, which is pissing me off. I'm paying more for less quality. So, I went back to analog. The stations expanders do it less often than the home ones. I tried to have the box fixed, but their tech couldn't see it. However, my brother who currently works on cable line gear does & he hasn't forgiven me since.
It ranks down there with each of us pointing out flaws in eachothers systems. However, once fixed, the result is formidable. The trick is to communicate. An artsy mechanical engineer vs. book-worm electronic technician ... need I say more?
...Just kidding. But truthfully I have heard or read of the problem you are describing as "frame dropout" for DVD playback. Have you ever seen this happen on any other system than your own? If not I would surmise that the glitch is unique to your system. Sounds like you've got a player with a bad chip as an artifact as severe as what you describe is completely unacceptable and would have gotten a lot of bad ink.By any chance is your dvd player connected via coaxial input (not s-video or component input) and are you using a MIT Res-Link cable? This might account for the problem you are having as that cable inserts a delay between chroma and luma signals by design.
I haven't found one w/o it yet on all the tons of places I've went looking for high-end HT/audio gear. I was so hoping the CAL CL-25 was better with the massively parallel engines, but nobody has one because of the restricted output. I think the stores wanted component & it didn't offer it. So, all they had was the CL-20 which did it too.
