Cheers David , no it wasnt the scope it was definitely the player . Thats now resolved and the trace is now back to normal . It was one of the wires on the input board causing it , I took all the wires off , trimmed them and put them back, and now the trace is all back to normal and I have separated left and right signals again
Althought you are probably right about it looking like that on the scope . it was actually good because thats how I found the fault ..lol
The problem I have now is the problem with the input levels jumping up .
Cheers
