It works !!!
I put two 10V 470uF capacitors on the SAA7110A chip and the diagonal
lines are all gone.. (I used legs (14- & 16+) and (18- & 20+))
I noticed a bit of flicker in the top of the picture afterwards, from
time to time, but then I found an old 30min video I had recorded, and
the flicker was there also, I just hadn't noticed it..
My guess is that it's the result of a to strong signal from the cable
decoder.
Thanks for the help,
