Samsung 32in. model no. LE32R73BDXIXEU

On the remote, you have a Source or Input button. Cycle through them. There is a source for every HDMI socket, plus aerial input. On my Samsung, that is 4 'channels'.

Try the same with a DVD running.

If nothing at all, you need a service centre.

Hi Gary. Not sure if this will be of any help, but have you tried connecting a DVD player and seeing if that is still colour tinged. It may be possible that your TV may have developed a fault and coincided with changing your aerial and there is in fact nothing wrong with the new aerial. I hope I'm wrong. If you are connecting through a different signal input socket, that may also be faulty or dirty. Basically, until someone can come up with a possible reason and fix, it may be worth ruling out other causes for the problems. Regards, Steve.

Hi.

If the problem happens using different input and devices, then it is either the terminal circuit (input/output connectors) or the processing unit in main board. The terminals are unlikely the culprit if problem concerns different inputs.

I imagine that the picture is not properly B&W (gray-shades) but some kind of reddish, bluish or greenish picture as the LCD will process picture using RGB (red green blue) channels instead of CYMK (cyan yellow magenta black) like CRT TVs.

Test the TV using an external aerial. You will notice if the channels have the wrong color even from static.

Use different inputs, different cables and different devices. beware of SCART cables, the SCART contacts are very easy to break. A defective cable will loose picture. Better testing using AV cables and component cables. AV cables are red/white for sound and yellow for video. If the two-wired yellow cable does not work, then the TV is faulty.
Other test can be done using component cables. Component cables send the three red-green-blue signals on different cables, hence testing is simple. Test swapping cables and see if TV tone stays the same if color tone changes the problem were the cables. Test also using at least two different devices (e.g. one DVD player and one TV receiver or a playstation).

If you find that the TV is defective call the manufacturer at the number listed on manual. If the problem is that one or more RGB channels do not work the TV main controller board must be replaced.

I think there is a problem with your tv's picture tube.Its best that you change the picture tube or repair it.

Ok, if all you did was remove the vcr out of the circuit and put the aerial directly to the tv and now the color will not come in. That means your signal is not strong enough to provide a good picture. Some new model tvs have weaker tuners compared to older model tv and vcr tuners causing them to have weak snowy or black and white picture. The idea being most newer tvs are designed for cable or satellite hd use not for aerial use. What you wear doing before was amplifying the signal by running it thru the vrc first then viewing the output on the tv. Get another vcr or amplify the signal with an signal amplifier.

check for DVD/TV cable. Use a SCART 21 conductor cable (if possible with gold contacts), or HDMI Cable if Tv has HDMI Input

well it seems you have an issue with one of your video boards, it could be that the Analog Video Board (the one with the inputs and outputs) is partially damaged, but it can also be your Digital Video Board, which is the one that projects the image

1) The 4:3 / 16:9 option only optimises playback for that particular type of TV. The 4:3 setting also allows you to set the output between:

• 4:3 PS - expands the picture vertically and horizontally which gets rid of the black bars, but you also lose the left and right edges of the picture.
• 4:3 LB - Letterbox format, displays the full picture from the disc, with black bars top and bottom.

The PS option loses the bars on 16:9 widescreen DVDs, but may still leave bars on true cinema widescreen DVDs, which are 21.7:9
This is normal.

• 16:9 - Optimises the picture for a widescreen TV. Again True cinema widescreen DVDs will still have black bars.

2) All of the external inputs will show "No signal" until there is actually a signal playing into them.
EG to copy VHS to DVD, you will need to select the relevant scart or phono input, and press play before the recorder will register a signal and allow recording.
Some bought VHS videos have copy protection, and may cause problems when copying to DVD.

3) Greenish playback maybe caused by colour setting on TV being too high. Also check Hue or Tint settings on the TV, if it has them.

4) For some reason, in their infinite wisdom, Philips omitted the Video Plus facility from this model.

OK, I think I see the problem there.
The aerial lead from the DVDR to TV should be removed.
You should have it setup the same as the other Freeview - VCR - TV
Nutshell time:
Main aerial to Freeview input.
Loop aerial from freeview output to DVDR areial input (all this does is allow you to watch freeview, or standard both out of the DVDR)
So..
Scart from Freeview to DVDR input
Scart from DVDR output to TV
Set DVDR to AV input mode.
Set TV to AV (whatever number you need for that..you now won't get anything on screen unless you have the right input selected)

If you can now see the Freeview picture on the TV and change the channels with the Freeview remote then you should be set for recording.

Having the aerial and a scart lead both going to the TV is not needed.

If the new player you hooked up is causing the spit screen then you have to go into the set up menu in the DVD player and take it out of prograssive scan.. Its in the wrong fornmat for your TV set. good Luck PS please dont forget to rate this.
