Hi,

I have connected my Pace (1000) box to my Projector, via Scart (Cable Box) and S-Video (Projector).

Picture is not bad when watching football. Slight problem its in Black & White, tried different settings on both the Cable Box and Projector still not receiving any colour signal at all.

Any advice Please

The only thing i can think of is connecting 1000 to dvd or vcr by scart, and connecting dvd or vcr to projector by s video, you may get a better pic that way.

had a similar prob to this and had to add a line filter on VM cable(`f`plug) to stb as there was too much signal coming through to stb.hope this helps.

Have you checked that your projector is set to PAL ... and that your receiver is outputting PAL as well? Seems obvious but it's often overlooked.
Try connecting the S-Video to your TV and make sure that it's picking up the signal correctly, if it is, then it's more likely to be a setting on your projector.
Good luck
