Your picture shows two problems.

First is the copy protection that has been mentioned.

The other problem is retrace showing.

Before you do the mentioned added capacitor, check the grid coupling capacitors on your video output tube for leakage. Check either by substitution with a known capacitor, or with a battery (at least 15 volts, better higher) in series with the suspected capacitor. The voltmeter reading should drop to zero in a few seconds if the cap is good. Bad ones go to almost zero, but never to zero.

It usually is not the first video, but it does no harm to check that one the same way while doing the other.
