    Default Picture on TV shakes during still image display

    I just got a handed down Panasonic CRTV. The picture quality is really good when gaming and watching TV. Anyways the problem is there is a slight picture shake when still images are shown on the TV. Anyone have any idea why this happens? I know some people will just say get a new TV, but i do not have the cash right now.

    Are you sure its shaking and not flickering due to refresh rate?

    Are we talking side to side, up and down? More of a vibration look?

    My Tv is very nervous yes lol. It is more of up and down vibration. I noticed it while playing video games, but it also happens when I view pictures on my DVD player too. I know for sure it is the TV doing this not my PS2,PS3 or DVD player which all happen to be Sony.

    Well I'm not sure there is anything we can tell you that will help. Most of us have zero or no experience with TV's and I wouldn't know where to start other than a repair shop..

    Could be a vertical hold issue but again, I could be way off

    It is not a big issue with the TV really. Just wanted some type of explanation as to why it was happening. Could be the refresh rate of the TV or something else. I do not have plans to fix the TV. It was made back in 2003. Since i am strapped for cash a fix will have to wait. Thanks guys!

    Most likely due to refresh flickering.
