How to connect dvd player so it's in color

We connected the dvd player to "componet1" and the playstation to "componet2" but they play in black and white and a bit fuzzy. Since the manual is in Spanish we are having touble figuring out what we should do so they play in color and how to switch to them from the remote. Where do we get an english written manual for the PDP4294X?

TV will not play blu ray (a LG blu ray player). Only LG logo comes up then black screen.

You have to use LG tv remote and press input.
Choose the option your blu-ray player is plugged into.
Any option that is not grayed out has something plugged into it.

ie., our cabel is componet2, our old vcr AV2, our dvd is HDMI3

My dvd player only plays back in black and white, no color. any ideas?

If you haven't done so already try connecting a different DVD player (or some other device) to the same part of the television to see if there is color. You can also try changing the cables connecting this dvd player and the television. If there is color on another device then you know that the problem is with the DVD player. If there is color with the same DVD player when you have changed the cables then you'll know that they were the problem. If the television does not play in color no matter what (DVD player or tv channels or anything connected to the television with all different cables) then you'll know it is at fault.

DVD player only plays DVD in black and white - what's wrong?

Ok,
I'm not sure what you mean by digibox. Under what conditions are you able to see things in color? Is a digibox a seperate device you can get to work with the same connection as your player? If one device displays color on the same connection and another doesn't then that seems to rule out the television being the problem. Can you clarify a little more?

Dvd only playing in black and white

Make sure that you connect all of these connections to the right colored cables.

It seems like you only have the green cable connected. Go back and connect the red and blue for both the tv and dvd.

Nextech N600 DVD player problem

You may have connected one of the component outputs (usually colored red, green, and blue) of your DVD player to the composite input of your TV. Connect yellow to yellow. See section 3.2 for hookup details. Also, if you've hooked up component video, check the three cables to make sure one of them hasn't become disconnected or developed a short and that they are connected in the correct order. If you use an s-video connection, the chroma wire maybe broken -- try a different cable or try the composite connection.
If you live in a PAL country (most countries outside of the U.S., Canada, and Japan) you may be playing an NTSC disc in a PAL player, but your PAL TV can't handle the signal. If your player has a switch or on-screen setting to select the output format for NTSC discs, choosing PAL (60 Hz) should solve the problem. See section 1.19 for more information.
