Why is my dishwasher leaving a coating on everything?

I’ve never had a dishwasher before and recently got given one so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong here. But when I first got it things were coming out really shiny and clean, now everything is coming out feeling dirty still and glass things and cutlery all have a white coating to them.

I’ve topped salt and rinse aid up and cleaned the filter. Any other suggestions?

I’ve just had to wash up pretty much everything which kind of defeats the point of having a dishwasher in the first place!

This happened when I used certain brands of dishwasher tablets namely Lidl and Asda ones. It never happens when I use Finish or Fairy tablets.
