Flickering Backup Camera
I just installed a Sony XAV-AX6000 with a backup camera from Crutchfield on my 2003 C5, and I am experiencing some flickering on my backup camera. Attaching a video.
As soon as I start up the car, the camera works fine, but after some time, the camera just starts to flicker and glitch. Restart the car, and the issue goes away.
I updated the radio to the latest firmware from Sony and checked the connections, any ideas?

My jittery problem turned out to be the wrong video mode selected on my alpine ilx 650.
I was in PAL not NTSC. Corrected the selection and everything is great.

how are you powering the camera? personally, I run the cam power off ACC and trigger the radio with reverse. If it is done that way, run a relay to isolate the wire, need this a lot of Euro cars
