    Can anyone suggest what to try to resolve problem. I cannot playback ext. pc-DVD to Tv in colour. I can only get black & white. I have s-video to RCA on the TV, and stereo plug on the sound card to RCA on the TV. I get the DVD playing, but only black & white. Suggestions please?

    I am having the same problem! The main problem is with burning VOB's or .IMG files! All previews during conversion are in colour. The burn goes well but subsequent playback on my stand-alone results in a b&w picture! The same disc will play fine in the computer as will any backup files (as in DVDShrink).I have tried various programs all with the same result. Any .avi converted files will work fine! I suspect a problem with a missing codec to satisfy the stand-alone but not too sure! If I perform a disc-copy, then NP! Just happens with some acquired VOB's/.IMG's! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Some remotes have a NTSC/Pal Button. If the wrong one is selected you will get b/w playback.

    Try pressing this button and see what happens.
