bought the minato - problem when playing reg.1. disc, am i doing it right?

Bought the minato on saturday from tesco and it`s great - thanks for all the advice on what player to buy.
Problem is when i play my reg.1. return to oz disc the picture suffers from a stilted look, like frames are being missed so it constantly jerks. It is still watchable though but makes you a bit dizzy. Does anyone know why?????
Could it be that the t.v. is not compatible with ntsc - but it`s pretty new and i`m sure that can`t be it.
It plays reg.2. discs okay but I`ve noticed a faint line appear on screen centre and move to the left off screen in my other henson dvd`s and little faint patches appear and then disappear. I thought that my be interference from the t.v. or something.
???????????????????
Thanks for your help!

Select PAL60 video instead of PAL50 - the PAL50 conversion on that player is crap.
