Movie appears in b/w
Hi
A bit amusing to narrate. I got home a DVD movie from a rental shop. The DVD seemed like a copy of the original hindi movie and was perhaps used for renting. Then I played it on my dvd player (pioneer dv 400), which is connected to my old reliable BPL CRT TV. For some reason, I see b/w. The cable connections are all correct. Any setups I should do in the DVD player ? A regular DVD (like my home video) or VCDs (bought originally) come up nicely in color. Is it because of the copied DVD which I should not be renting ? I am pretty confused. Thanks, Ashok

Re: Movie appears in b/w
Well, since your regular DVDs/VCDs play alright, the fault has to lie in the rented DVD-must be really shoddy quality.
Try to find a rental shop that stocks original DVDs-at least you'll get your moneys' worth.

Re: Movie appears in b/w
Hi,
Ashok the reason apart from the already said could be a basic one  !!If the DVD is not camera print or anything then, please check the following : 1. Tv is capable of taking multi system (PAL&NTSC) 2. In the DVD player the output is set to multi aswell 3. The dvd if its english or hindi which ever it is whether any details available of the disc ! Please make sure you have set the player to output both the PAL&NTSC ! also the Tv is capable of taking it !This should 100% solve the problem  !Regards.

Re: Movie appears in b/w
Just to close this loop, it turns out my TV (BPL) is not capable of taking both NTSC and PAL. That is the reason for this. So, once I have some savings I will go with a new TV.
Thanks Ashok
