    Wobbly / Shaky picture on BC1 when using STB

    Hi, i'm wondering if someone could shed some light on this issue i have, i've tried two strong set top boxes with my BC1 recently and it is connected via a 10 metre scart lead (as it is on a high pole stand). I have noticed that the picture is slightly wobbly (like little water ripples). Is this normal? It does not do this when the DVD is on, and i don't remember the picture always doing this...?

    The first thing I would try is a short scart in case the problem is interference.

    Look at the cable run and get a better insulated Scart - I dare say Steve at Sounds Heavenly can help.

     ah, after playing around with it for half an hour i realised that it's to do with the mode the television is in! When i assign V.TAPE as a V.TAPE connected the picture is clear and perfect. When i assign V.TAPE as a decoder connected it is grainy and wobbly. It must be to do with CVBS vs RGB!

    I have a BV1 and the AV socket is configured as VTAPE to make the Sky Digital box work. Although configured as DECODER it doesn't work at all!
