Since there are currently two types of formats (PAL and NTSC), the above problems occur if the format of the DVD and the system of the TV are incompatible.

If it is falling to this group, then you should confirm the TV in the system, the TV must be adjusted to the PAL or NTSC system based on the region you are in. When the TV system is also selected correctly, the DVD is also adjusted to the corresponding standard.

You can check on this article for some detailed reasons and more solutions for each issue:

SOURCE: TV plays color, dvd black and white

Hello again, well, it seems as though the circuit board in the back of the tv was the culprit. He hooked the dvd to the front of the tv and it now works! Poor Dad, and everyone thot it was him!
He did learn a quick lesson on "Button Pushing" though!
Thank you so much for taking the time to help figure this out. Have a great week!

SOURCE: DVD Player won't play movies in color

It could be the av cables being faulty or shorted. Try replacing them with another set and see if it goes away.

SOURCE: DVD disks just play in black and white. No color.

This is because of the audio video format issue. You select the TV type to auto (Advisable) or to the appropriate selection such as PAL or NTSC in the DVD player to get the better output with the color.
This selection you usually find in settings > Video setup> TV Type

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Please check that all the cables are firmly plugged in and are selected in the setup menu for the kind of cable you are using viz. component, S-video or composite. If still the issue is not resolved then you’ll need to uninstall and reinstall the drivers. Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.


Thanks
Rylee

Why GE TV plays color DVD/VCR tapes in black and white

Some inputs on tvs won't process the color signal. Try one of the other inputs. Mine does the same. If u have already used the working ones on something else, U will need a switch to select one or the other available at Radio Shack if u can find one.

When playing DVD on panasonic plasma TV, the color is black and white

Consult the owner manual for the player (and or try it on another set) as many players have settings that can cause B&W or a single color display for the image.

VHS plays in colour and DVD plays in black and white.

there is a circuit in the color section to put the tv to black and white if the color subcarrier is missing from the broadcast signal.
it is called a color killer and needs to be adjusted.
it is for a technician to do.
it operates off the 3.58mhz color subcarrier.

TV plays color, dvd black and white

Hi,

If I understand your post/description, the DVD plays OK except it is in Black & White. If so, change setting from PAL to NTSC or vice versa depending on the region you are in. US operates on NTSC, Most of Europe is PAL.

Hope that this be of help/idea. Pls post back how things turned out or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Tv/dvd combo only plays dvd's in black and white

Finally figured this out. On your remote push tv menu until you get to function. You should automatically be under col.sys. change this to NTSC. Took me awhile to get remote to work here, ended up pushing in the middle of the red vol +,- bar on the right of the remote. Couldn't find the right button according to the directions on the screen. DVD is now in color!! If you are not already on the option to change col.sys, use the red channel up down bar on the left of the remote.
