Help! I have just bought my first DVD Player - the Cyber Home AD-L528 - and although it will play 3 discs perfectly, anything else I try to play has reeeeally dark colours and flares up brightly at random moments during the disc ... As a DVD virgin I can`t tell whether or not I`m doing something wrong - but as 3 of my discs play fine, what could it be? Has anybody else out there experienced a similar problem?
Could it be because I am SCARTing through a video down an aerial line into a TV? I end up watching discs on the AV channel of the video - is this a No-No?
Any advice welcome - having come so close to heaven this is so frustrating!
RE: CyberHome problem - can you help?

Could be that as you`re going thru your VCR the macrovision is kicking in which disrupts the recording of most DVD`s (see previous threads on this subject). Try connecting the scart from your DVD player direct into your TV and all should be ok. Re the 3 discs played perfectly, could be these discs were not macrovision protected?
