The biggest issue I think I can see is lack of timebase lock. Until that occurs you're not going to see much at all. Go back to the stair-step waveform and get that nice and stable to start with. It is a known stable source, anything else at this stage I would view with suspicion.
I did mention some time back that I thought the opto-coupler was perhaps not suitable for this, i.e. not linear enough, but let's first get a nice stable picture, even if lacking grey-scale detail.

Steve no problems on the opto circuit is what it is at the moment good learning exercise which ever way it plays out ,i think it will work perhaps R304 might need adjusting later on ?
I am using the reversing bar wave i just needed something shape wise to make out the bar video is hard to make out on the display at the moment .
