I've noticed that also.  I believe that the problem is related to a copy
protection method.  The problem is that the monitor has no tuner.  This
copy protection method in particular has garbage that causes a VCR tuner
not to be able to track the signal, but the tuner in a TV can (it filteres
out this garbage).  I've been thinking about getting a filter for this,
but I've heard that they're about $80.  Anyone have any more info on this?
