I can watch dvds OK in color but not regular TV. I've tried everything with no results. Is there a secret button I cannot see? The set is in Brazil, where the voltage is the same but the TV system is not. My other American LCD works fine in color, but this one I see color only playing dvd - the black and white image is perfect, only with no color. Thanks for your help.
The colore frequency is a little bit different so
tho over the air picture is effected probably
more so in the city I think Brazil has PAL-N
which is more off than NTSC or PAL-M
The TV broadcast system in Brazil is PAL-M.
If this TV was bought from the US then the TV will be expecting the NTSC system.
Your other American TV may be a multi standard TV and is able to detect and adapt to your PAL broadcast system. Not all TVs do this.
How do you connect the DVD to the Trutech TV? Is it with a Scart connector? If so then the TV will not be using any broadcast standard at all and that is why it works properly.
Unfortunately if you have searched all the menus and manual instructions without finding a TV system selection, then this TV may never be able to receive TV broadcast in colour.
Yes I see now, the title for this problem is a bit vague.
Obviously with the DVD player built in there is no need for TV system encoding, it is probably straight RGB.
Now in order to dignose this problem with any accuracy we would need to know the model number. After a bit of work I suspect this to be PVS12701. Please can you verify?
Or maybe it's a KLV3170?

If you were to log on to the
manufacturer's web site, I think you will be pleasantly surprised as
usually one is able to download, by model number, Customer
Instruction Manuals, list
of Dealers for spare part supplies and
Driver
downloads
(if applicable)
as required.
The information is normally free of
charge.
I hope this helps.

The DVD is not separate but built into the unit.
That's why I expect some sort of configuration
is needed in order for it to work. I'm in Brazil now and the Sharp LCD had a switch that
made it adaptable to the local syatem.
I'm illiterate in this so I haven't really searched in the right places for the right answer, hence my joining this program. Any chances?
It is a KLV3170?
