As your TV has got a component input, try cycling through the input sources, you may not have selected the correct one. I'm sure that A/V is not the correct input to select. It will be something like COMPONENT or 'Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr'
The colored plugs are called a COMPONENT connection, this is a 5-cable thing, 3 cable for video, and 2 cable for audio.

Your TV may not have this type of connection, did you verify this before buying the DVD? Is it too late to return and buy something more modern, with HDMI, which most new TV now have?
