"colour" is saturation.

You can modify these record settings per channel during Live
TV by pressing "G". Make sure you're not time-shifted or you
won't see the changes at the same time as you make adjustments.

If you want to set the saturation to 30000 for all channels:

mysql> update channel set colour=30000;
