Hi! Just ordered 2.5 HDD divxplayer and I am connecting it with TV through RCA composite yellow cable. I noticed that on some TV sets it only shows picture in low quality Black&white and on other TVs it shows color picture. Why is that? Can this be fixed? Thinking about returning the product...:/

You use are using composite video output on the Divx player. Then check the setting of the input on the TV set to which you connect your Divx player. It could be S-Video setting. Then all you get is B&W picture on the TV screen.
