Adjusting TV colours

Hi I havejust bought a Technika smartbox and I am really pleased with it so far. However, when watching the tv through the box the colours are very strong... very red. How can I change these so that the tv colours aren't altered when we aren't using the smartbox? OH wants to watch the tv 'as he always has done'
We have it connected via an HDMI cable

    Whether or not you can is dependent entirely on the TV. On my Panasonic it stores the settings for each individual input. On some budget TVs they don't do that though. The only thing to do is to try setting it as you want with the HDMI connection the Smartbox is connected to and just see if it affects other inputs when you change to them.

    Thanks, I never knew that each channel could be tuned in individually. I have given it a go and it is much better.... just a bit more tweeking to do.

    Thanks again
