Hi. I have just a simple TV with cable. I have a VHS and a separate DVD. No DVD's work properly. They'll run a bit, and then start to crackle and thick white lines pop up during the crackle, then disappear. The movie color fades in&out and all have a 'redness' to them. I never had this happen before I bought the the DVD; however, I've tried another DVD and the same thing happens. It can't be every single movie, so it must be wrong wiring through the VHS. Can anyone help me fix this?

Sorry, I forgot to mention, my cable is via the Comcast cable box.

You can't connect a DVD through a VHS if that's what you're doing. Connect straight to the TV. If the TV doesn't have line inputs, you need an RF modulator.
