DVD player - colour output

    Whenever I play certain DVDs the colour is in black and white even though the same DVD will play in colour on another machine. A friend of mine told me about a device that can be plugged into the back of the DVD player to rectify this. However I can't seem to find any and internet searchs haven't thrown up anything useful.

    Did she dream this product or does it actually exist? If it does, are there some brands that would be better than others?

    Thanks.

    The DVD's you have in black & white are they imported as it sounds like they are NTSC based DVD's which is the American & a few other regions broadcast format.

    What happens when you play a NTSC DVD in a PAL setup that doesn't support NTSC is you get the black & white picture.

    There are indeed some NTSC-PAL converters but not sure they are worth it or not, plug the other DVD player that works into the TV with the one that doesn't to see if it's the DVD or TV that has trouble with the NTSC signal.
