I got a toshiba sd 3109 dvd player in july or so. I have had problems with certain movies (such as i still know what you did last summer) but other i havent (most rented). The problem is the picture gets darker and lighter, even when the movie is paused. The connection is rca cables, i dont have a s video compatible tv yet. I really didnt think much of the problem because i have wiring problems in my apartment and I figured the faulty picture was do to the environment. Then one of my friends just purchased the same dvd player and experienced the same problem. I was wondering: is this normal? is there any way to correct this (other then turning the brightness WAY down)? Will this happen with an s video? I appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks in advance. any help appreciated. my email address is beastieboy_22m@yahoo.com. John

John,
Do you have the DVD player hooked through a VCR? Your problem sounds exactly like macrovision, copy protection on the disk. Some DVD's have it, some don't. This would explain the differeing results with different disks. Let me know how you have everything connected. BTW this is not normal for standard connections.
