Just to remind those who did not see/do not remember my posting about 
this...

I own a Hitachi television, which at the time I purchased it, was a very 
high end set, with an excellent picture. Although this set is now rather 
old, it still beats most new sets for picture quality. About three years ago 
I finally bought a DVD player and hooked it to the set via S-VIDEO. 
Unfortunately, when watching DVD's I suffer from nasty jitter in the picture 
that comes and goes. After discussion here on the PICLIST we decided that 
the issue was likely the set getting confused by the Macrovision protection 
in the DVD output signal. It makes no sense that I should have to buy a new 
set, or a 'Macrovision Buster' to be able to watch DVDs.
