My projection television shows images from a DVD player in color, but B&W from the cable box…?

We were given this television and know very little about it. It’s a Samsung Projection Television HC-P4752W.

Instead of having a dozen people trying to figure out what’s wrong, why don’t you describe the details of how you hooked things up. Then there’s a chance one of us might be able to help you.

    You didn’t say so, but I’m going to guess that you are using different inputs on the TV for your DVD and your cable box.

    Although I am not familiar with this particular TV, I know that you can set preferences for each input, and they will hold that setting even though you change to a different input. Under such options, you might have the cable input’s color saturation set down to the minimum; hence you will see only black and white.

    My HDTV will allow me to set various color settings for each input, including sepia and black and white. I suspect your TV has such settings as well.

    Go online and see if you can download the Owner’s Manual from the Samsung website. It will tell you how to get into the menu area so that you can check this setting for each input option.
