Question

I need to know if a DLP tv is only showing in black and white, what is the cause

Answer 1

Is it in b&w with all input including the tuner? check the color level setting in the menu. If the problem is only on one input such as dvd, some sets will share an input with two or three different types of video input cables. example: input # 1 or #? may allow using component rgb versus s-video or composit. You may need to go into your menu and assign the input that has no color to which fomat of video you are using by choosing component or composit. Hope this helps

Answer 2

The only thing I can think of is the device connected (cable box, satellite box, DVD/Blu-Ray player, etc.) is connected via component, and the red and blue connections are disconnected, other than that, it would be a problem with the television
