Help Needed ! Ntsc Problem With Pacific 1002 On Panasonic Pk28 Tv !

I really need some help here guys so I hope one of you can throw some light on this problem !

Ive tried a number of DVD players with my Panasonic pure flat PK28 TV and a few of them (including all cyberhome players and Pacific/Schneider players) produce a kind of "strobing" effect on my multi standard Panasonic PK28 TV when the output is switched to NTSC mode under RGB output.

The display is 100% fine under PAL and is OK on VCD when outputting NTSC - so I am beginning to wonder if the problem is to do with the Macrovision on the DVD side of things ?

I have used an ALBA 108 player and a MICO Classica 20 player on the TV and they gave no problems when outputting NTSC via RGB so Im at a bit of a loss to know what to try next ?

Im currently "testing" a Pacific 1002 player from ASDA, and will happily keep the player (its played everything Ive thrown at it so far) if the annoying NTSC problem can be resolved ?

Is there a macro removal hack for the Pacific 1002 player yet - or alternatively has anyone else with a Panasonic PK28 (or similar model) experienced similar difficulties ?

Thanks in advance !
