Hi-hi, hope everyone's doing welle today! : )

I was looking at a lot of old threads about units with solid tracking, and Panasonic AG-2560s came up a lot. I bought a used one, and it DOES have nice tracking. But it has a huge-jangous visual problem. I've tried with, like, five different component cables (Keep in mind none of my other units have any issues like this with the same exact cords.), and no matter how snugly I try to keep the video component cable in, the output comes out like this...

... And this is just on the standard display screen. Nothing's even playing, and it's this noisy.

Besides the wavy rainbow lines, that top part of the screen's all blue-washed in comparison to the rest of the screen.

Anyone else had this happen? Any ideas of how to fix it? Rock rock on, and wishing that you all find your own perfect setup, if you haven't already! Ain't no easy task.
