Why is my TV green?

I bought a DVD recorder, and so I need my digibox to run through it and have the DVD connected to the TV. When the DVD' s on standby, all's well. The signal goes through it and into the TV. However, when the DVD is on (not on standby), my TV picture adopts a haunting green colour. But I can only record when the DVD's on - so what to do? The most annoying thing is that at first, there wasn't a problem, it just happened after half an hour.

Answer:
It has scurvy. give it a lime
get a new dvd player or try connecting the cables into a different input
that happened to my tv when my son used his play station although he's played it quite a few times before it happened, i found if i turned the tv off and waited 30 seconds it would correct it self
your tv is environmentally friendly

or maybe the scarts are not in properly, a scart adaptor might be a way of sorting it.

i recommend currys or your local tv specialist. look in yellow pages.
try fixing the scart leads in both tv and dvd
I don't know but I'll find out for you baby!
Its' polluted.
because your gay!...hahaha you noob!!
could be poor quality scart cables might be best to buy a new 1 cheaper ones affect the performance of your products another question is do you have a surround sound dvd or even just your stereo near it its a common fault created by putting your speakers on top of your tv...Something to do with the magnetic field
You don't say how the devices are connected so here's a selection of possible causes:

1 You have a faulty scart lead between DVD and tv. Change it.

2 Your DVD is outputting in S-Video mode but your tv is expecting an RGB signal (or vice-versa). Check the port configuration of both machines.

3 You are using a UHF aerial cable connection throughout. Check that the tv is tuned to the correct output channel of the DVD machine. It may work on a 'harmonic' channel but will be prone to interference.

4 Your DVD machine is bust. Take it to a repair man or back to the shop.
