Samsung smart tv

Last winter we bought a new tv. It was great but now the colors are weird. Reds are kind of fuschia and blues are purple. We have messed with settings and can’t get it better. My question is… could this be from our Dish Hopper? We did get a new hopper from Dish a few months ago cause old one quit. Can’t remember if the color difference started then or not.

    I'd do what others have suggested and first swap out the cables. It could also be from a faulty tv input (HDMI?). So try switching to another available input.

    Did you also try unplugging the tv, not just power off/on which just puts it on standby. This should reboot the internal operating system, similar to smartphones. Has fixed many problems with my Vizio smart tv, including occasionally losing audio for no reason. Or not syncing with the correct picture format. Want's to display in Ultra Panavision now and then? :S

    Also, had one dead HDMI input. Not a fan of Vizio.
