I have a superman tv/dvd combo which was working fine. It fell on the floor and now only plays the dvd's in black and white. I don't have cable attached to the tv but the "screensaver" page is in color when the unit is turned on. I tried every button on the remote control thinking one of the kids may have changed a setting but can't get the color back. I don't know if a wire may have come loose but am hesitant to open the unit unless I know what I am looking for.

Has anybody figured out what's wrong the dvd player yet? I recently started having the same problem and tried every button on the remote. Tried to find the directions at home and online but can't find any. Everything else is in color.Has anybody figured out what's wrong the dvd player yet?

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.
I put the dvd disc inside the dvd play and it is saying, "no disc." So then I put a music cd inside the dvd player and it played the music. Why will it not play the dvd?

We had the same problem, the dvd's would play black and white, it took us about 2 months to figure out my son had changed something in the settings, I don't remember exactly what he did but it was something in the menu settings, if your screensaver is in color it's probably the same issue we had.

There are a few possible reasons why you may be experiencing black and white video when playing DVDs on your Syvania SSD803 DVD/VCR combo. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
Check the video settings on your TV. Make sure that the TV is set to display color and that the correct video input is selected.
Check the cables. Make sure that the cables connecting the DVD/VCR combo to the TV are securely plugged in and that they are in good condition. If the cables are damaged or loose, they may cause the video to be distorted or not display at all.
Check the DVD/VCR combo. Make sure that the DVD/VCR combo is set to output color video and that all of the connections are secure. If the DVD/VCR combo is not set to output color video or if the connections are loose, it may cause the video to be displayed in black and white.
Check the DVD. Make sure that the DVD itself is in good condition and that it is compatible with the DVD/VCR combo. If the DVD is damaged or is not compatible with the DVD/VCR combo, it may cause the video to be displayed in black and white.
If none of these troubleshooting steps resolve the issue, it is possible that there is a problem with the DVD/VCR combo itself. In this case, you may need to have it repaired or replaced
Should be. Contact any service technician. Check the system settings. Get into its menu, and enter the system settings; and make it 'auto' Gopakumar Gopalan Google
Cable damage is the first thing to check. If the cable is external this is an easy check by trying a new one. Otherwise it is probably internal cable damage or damage to the video output plug.
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.
figure out if yout tv and your dvd is using the same color system, check also if you installed your rca connector on proper video output of your dvd dont interchane yuv to video out connectors ,check also your dvd's video out setting ,like interlace, pc,yuv, rgb, if you are using video in on your tv you should select s-video or interlace if you are using yuv on your tv you should select yuv on your dvd
sir/maam it is possible that the DVD player is not compatible with colored tv,s or one more thing is kindly first adjust the screen focus of your tv,,,,thnksss and hope to help you!!!more power
