Red and White are usually sound inputs
Yellow should go to the yellow INPUT on the TV.
If these are connected properly and A/V is the selected input,
unplugging the red or white should only take away sound from the Left or Right.
The yellow wire carries all picture information to the Video input.
Try unplugging and reconnecting the yellow cable. If it does not improve the picture, try replacing it. (You can try any cable, the TV can't tell what color you are using.) ;-).

Hey, I had this problem on Thanksgiving Day, trying to watch a dvd on my mother's HDTV. You should be able to hook up most standard dvd players to hdtvs. First you have 3 cords, mine were red, yellow, and white. The connections go as follows:
HDTV:
Audio| Component. The white cord should be in a white audio slot. The yellow cord should be in a yellow component slot (video) and the red cord should be in a red video component slot labeled Pr/Cr. Make sure you match the component numbers. For instance, if you want to use component one, then hook all of the cords into the slots for component one. Most hdtvs have multiple component hookups ( think multiple "channels" for your game system, dvd player, etc) so it's important that the corresponding cords go to the correct component slots.
DVD:
Match the yellow and white cords to the appropriately colored slots. The red cord should go into the slot labeled component video out Cr/Pr. Not the red audio out. This worked for me. Hope this helps.

ruettab,
good day. to connect your any DVD player to any TV screen always remember this color code
from DVD back part:
yellow = video out
red/blue/green( in a row) = component video out ( this can only be used for screen with component video inputs)
Black = digital audio ( rarely use unless)
Red and white (in a row) = Audio output (left and right audio)
where to connect from TV screen.
Locate where A/V INPUTS (audio/video socket) from your TV screen, you can see it either at the BACK/SIDE or somtimes in FRONT of TV screen , having marked as "AV1"AV2"AV3' .
Once you found TV input, you must first have RCA cable (color code cable to connect player to screen) then connect the RCA cable at the back of your DVD player, simply follow color code
RCA yellow marked cable = DVD yellow socket
RCA RED and WHITE marked cable = DVD RED and white socket (second row for your player)
then connect the other end of the RCA cable to TV screen, first select which input where you gonna place the DVD player ( either AV1, Av2 or Av3 if do have multiple inputs)
once decided which INPUT to connect the player.
ex. if you select AV1 as input there would be 3socket on its row (yellow/red/white)
now connect the other end of RCA cable to the screen by following the same color code:
RCA yellow cable = TV screen A/V1 input yellow socket
RCA RED and White = TV screen A/V1 input red and white socket.
cheers,
mark

Amongst 3 audio and 3 video options on DVD, use only one for displaying picture on TV and one for getting sound.
Yellow Wire is for picture.
Red Wire is for sound.
White Wire is for sound.
Connect Yellow from TV to yellow at DVD
Red from TV to Red at DVD
White from TV to White at DVD
Hope this help.....
