Did I get a bad DCTV? No color!

switching screen modes won't make a difference because the dctv gets timing off the video port. a pal machines timing will still be different no matter the screen mode.If there is a way around it i have no idea.
The only reason i knew about this was a friend with a pal 1200 has the same trouble back in the day.

you need a PAL version of the dctv for this to work right i think.

I agree...looking at the pic it definitely looks like an NTSC vs PAL issue

I saw that post as well....if it should work then there's surely something gone bad in the DCTV given the output in the picture.
