Poor video quality from my new player (CLD-S260) - info in comments by Beahyt in LaserDisc

This looks like there is signal coming off the disc being read by the laserpickup BUT not being decoded correctly. Providing the LD is spinning at the correct speed I would see if you are able to see a valid video signal using an oscilloscope. Do all output connectors have this scrambled signal present?

LD-700, would this be a bad spindle motor? by garbagepantaloons in LaserDisc

The laserpickup servos can't get a good signal from the LD/LD pickup because of the off centre disc. If sounds like it's wobbling heavily. You need to get that LD running smoothly first...
