When I tape TV progs it plays back in black & white. Videos recorded in colour are fine but anything new records in B&W.Connections as follows:
SCART from Cable & Wireless Digital box to TV (Philips 28PW9515) & VCR (JVC HR -S7500)
S-Video from VCR to Amp (Sony STR-DB930) and S-Video from Amp (Monitor S-Video out) to TV
If the VCR is hooked up to an antenna move it around that could be the problem. Watch TV through the VCR's tuner and see if it is B&W also.
T.V is fine watching it through the VCR (in fact that IS how I usually watch)& tapes that are in colour (ie pre-recorded or recorded on other videos) are also fine when played back. Any other thoughts anyone?
Have you tried recording through the RCA video in? If you haven't be sure to play it back throught the RCA video out.
You might swap out some cables, but I would suspect that it's the JVC, if thats what you are recording on. I recently got a HR9600 and played some tapes I had viewed on another vcr. The pre recorded tapes that were in color kept playing b&w. It finally straightened out after a few tries. I still haven't figured it out, but for now everything is ok.
