the device might only support b/w.  also check the signal from the
VHS if you haven't already.

or the card could be in an odd color state.  the tunerctl program
might be able to help.  read the manual.  try tweaking hue,
saturation, those types of things.  here's a(n oldish) port for
bsdav, which contains tunerctl:

hint: use bktrplay and tweak with tunerctl, so you can see what
the controls do in real time.
