RE: NTSC playback

[TAWN Jonathan <jonathan.tawn@xxxxxxx>]

Hi..

After receiving the fireplace DVD (thanks rob!) ... I popped it into my
sony
DAV-S550 player, it started to play ... great I thought ... however 
it was
in black & white.

The thing is, I do not use a tv as such, its an old monitor - with
scart
input / bnc input and phono in/out's ... no tuner. (hey .. it was cheap
and
after my tosh tv died... ) I've been told that the reason I cannot view
this
disc in colour is because my TV (if that's what I can call it) doesn't
support NTSC ... so I either need a new tv (not viable at the moment due
to
a v.poor bank balance) or a ntsc / pal converter (seen in maplins for
around
30quid)

What I'm hoping one of you can tell me is either:

This bit of kit from maplin's will sort it out so I can view import
dvd's
fine, or
I'm stuck with B&W viewing until I can afford to get a nice new tv.

Oh .. just thought, its currently connected using composite outputs
(although was going to change it at the weekend for SVHS (using svhs /
scart
cable)

Any thoughts / advice greatly appreciated.
Jonathan.
