Some JVC players have the ability to output NTSC discs in PAL 50. As the original (R1) source uses 30fps, that means the player has to drop 5 frames each second in order to run at PAL`s usual 25fps. So make sure your player is set to Pure NTSC output (there might be a switch on the back of the player)....
Obviously, you might already know that and may just be very intolerant of 3:2 pulldown (which is inherent/unavoidable with the majority of NTSC displays).
