I had the same problem with my Philips DVDR. All it takes is some changing of the scart leads and it works a treat. What have you got connected up to the dvd player and t.v. Is there a vcr or sky attatched?

there is nothing wrong with your player. your tv may not be ntsc compatable american standard as older sets don`t seem to be (i used to have one and my imports would play colour and my player is muti region same went for my playstation imports that was when i discovered that it was my tv so get a new one!! most modern models support the tv standard for both countries ie pal/ntsc.

I`ve got the same problam with my Pioneer DVD player- it shows "some" DVDs in Black and White, and others in colour. I believe you when you say, it`s just a matter of moving the SCART cables about- but how? Please help. Thanks!
