TLDR: Is there such a device on the market that can play video files (either from its own disk or from an external HDD via USB) and output them to HDMI in 4K HDR with Atmos? I have ripped some of my BluRay disks and am currently looking for a device (I'm not even quite sure it exists) for...

Hello, I wondered if anyone can advise me on something I've experienced with a VCR - I suspect it's one of the components. I've been using an AKAI VCR to transfer VHS tapes to DVD, and I was having a problem with the playback. The sound was fine, no problem, but there were wavy coloured lines...
