Transcoded AVI's look awful

Hi,

I have a panasonic vierra S60 (not the st60). This TV wont play AVI's i believe because every time I tried it would say "cannot read file". So I added the panasonic 2013 profile and was able to play avi files, transcoded, but they look awful. Its almost like theres a double image on top of eachother. The text looks all weird. Ive tried all the Vierra profiles and the same result.

Any idea what settings I should change? Do I need to up the bit rate? Ive attached a sample picture of the problem.

Heres the current profile Im using.

Re: Transcoded AVI's look awful

Can you post ffmpeg -i for the avi file? Also ideally enable detailed log, play the file again and post here the ffmpeg command used for the transcoding job.
