Page 1 of Phillips DVD 711

Have used the Phillips DVD-750 hack, but discs that are from USA are playing in black and white. European discs seem to play OK. Any suggestions?

Hi There,

This could be one of two problems......!

You have your dvd player hooked up through your video, in that case R1 discs will not play in colour in most cases! You would generally get macrovision problems also using this method...!

NOTE:- you cant use the phono type video cable either!!!!!!

You will have to link it directly into you tv using a scart lead NOT phono cables

If that is not the case and your dvd player is going through your tv then your tv cant handle the NTSC signal....! You will need to try it on another tv!

Hope this helps

or in simpler terms..

Your TV needs to be able to accept an RGB signal...

Most new TV`s have two SCART inputs.. one is RGB while the other is COMPOSITE..

just try switching yer scarts around...
