TV Picture I have a 50 inch Samsung DLP TV and the picture is messed up. It looks 3D and there are purple and green colors on it. Please HELP?

You are correct that oit is the color wheel. I wcannot give you a part number at this time because you have not supplied the model number of the set. I hope this helps.

Check for open or leaky capacitors look for bulge on the top of caps

Its probably unrelated to lamp, take the lamp out, try it again and look into the lens, if its still very green the projectors electronics are failing. The projector generates pictures as 3 streams of info Red Green and Blue. It looks like the projectors red and blue electronics are failing, but the green is working.

The tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.The tv have colors lines R,G,B mis alignments,have colors shadow pictures or 3D pictures look alike?The tv convergence board have dead 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all of it resistors too.These parts on the tv convergence board,must be replaced to solved the tv picture convergence problems.The shop,will cost u like $300-350 for parts and labors.

check the color whell alignment on the service mode

The main board is more than likely the cause of the trouble. Time for a new TV.
