If you have s-video on your TV, buy a s-video connector and L/R audio RCA connectors. Use s-video for video and use RCA jacks for L/R audio.

Justforhahha, First of all thanks.
I did change settings at A/V settings. I made changes at component output from s-video to YPbPr.
Interestingly, It brought the color but very strange kind of color. Do you or some else have any other suggestions to bring more normal colors.
Nalin, I thanks you as well, but s-video as you suggested, I'm using that for my dik basic rec.My tv has only one s-video.
Please help me. Thanks !

Also many times a simple rear switch reboot or a 15 second power unplug from wall outlet may fix that B&W problem..or a simple factory reset and new scan...and ensure U have the correct video mode settings correct, as also suggested..

There is definitely NO NEED to go buy S video cables now as suggested by nalin...thats a waste and not going to change anything..

Justforhaha.. Now I have tried to turn off the the rear switch, let see if that helps. NO. It doesn't. Let me unplug it for few minutes. let see.... No. it doesn't.
It is strange. When I'm connecting rec to my tv with s-video or coaxial wire. There is no colouring problem. It gives me normal colored pic. That means it doesn't even need any rebooting or unplugging. Right ? But we have tried that as well.
Now I have never tried factory reset. I'm kind unsure what to expect after doing that.
Do I need to upload the loader bin with null wire after doing factory reset ??
Please help.

"Nalin, I thanks you as well, but s-video as you suggested, I'm using that for my dik basic rec.My tv has only one s-video. "

In that case It can't hurt to unplug the cable from the "dik basic rec" and try it out on your FTA receiver output. If it works, there are other solutions for two s-video outputs into one s-video input of your tV.

Nalin, Yes, it works. No problem with colors while using s-video.
Nalin, please explain me what you meant by two s-video output into one s-video input of your tv???
Remember My samsung tv has one s-video input? Thanks.

You can buy a cheap selector box.

You can buy a two input One output s-video switch.
http://www.svideo.com/svideo4to1.html

You can also use RCA compisite video cable with audio cables - it comes usually as Yellow (video) Red and White (audio) cable and use the Corresponding input of your TV.
Svideo signals can be carried a good length, so if you want to you can have the switch by your side if it is totally manual (cheapest).
Go to a place like Radio Shack and see what they have to offer.

I thank you both of you.
I will get the that s video switch tomorrow.Hope that will solve the problem.
But again I really can't believe that component wire doesn't work for me. Aren't they supposed to work ?????
No settings needed ?

I'm sorry guys. MY BAD. It was connection problem.
I didn't check the connection cuz I was 100% sure. I have learned one thing that
we should check the connections even if we are 200 percent sure.
Thank you guys !
