RCA drc286 screen flicker

I just purchased this dvd player. When the dvd is playing, occasionally the screen will flicker like an old 8mm film. I had the same problem with the drc285 it eventually started locking up or have a double horizontal image on the screen.

OLD P6-120 Tapes

The only way if to get an 8mm player from any friend or from any photography studios that does conversion of old tapes. These recordings can be converted only if they can play well and hopefully without deterioration due to magnettic fields and fungus. Check out on old stores or maybe some electronic freaks who would be glad to share and ,make a transfer. Use can use a good handy cam to record using the the composite signals of video and audio which can be transferred to DVD. Hope you are lucky to find one! Good day.

Help on dvd

Make sure the audio cables (most likely the red and white ones) are securely plugged into the back of the player and your tv or amp whichever you are using. If that doesn't fix it try replacing the audio cables. If the problem still occurs see if the DVD has a mute function and make sure it is unmuted (this will most likely reset after a restart so it's unlikely the problem). If the problem still occurs the unit may need to be replaced or repaired.

Our screen is flickering like an old 8mm film

Check the video-out cable. If loose, it can be "intermittent," thus cause image flicker.

What are the compatible types of DVD's that the Daewoo DVD5800 player is supposed to play? Is DVD-R among the compatible types? Try playing the new recordings on a computer that has a DVD drive, or a friend's computer.
