Default Projection problem

Hi,
I was doing a live mixing for a church event. I had 3 cameras hook up to a mixer and project through a projector. There were lines runing across the screen. I was talking with the audio guy and he was telling me tat's smthing about the imbalance of AC output for the cameras and the projector. I had no idea what he was talking about because I dun have any electrical background. Would someone please explain to me wat was happening and why would be the solution for such problem.

Thank You

Alex Shea

you know when you hold a mobile phone to a tv and it sometimes screws with the image - Interference - That's was the problem - sounds like the cable routing was a bit shoddy

If using S-Video cables then it sounds as if u are using relativley amatureish equipment.

Can you list all the equipment you used
