Playstation 3 connection trouble in Olevia Television.

It is likely that the problem is your AV cable. This cable has one plug that connects to your Playstation 3 and a red plug, a white plug, and a yellow plug that connects to your television. Follow these steps to get your PS3 up and running again

1. Unplug your AV cable from your PS3 and T.V.
2. Plug in your AV cable to your PS3 and T.V.

When plugging your AV cable back into the T.V. make sure that the red plug is in the red socket, the yellow plug is in the yellow socket and the white plug is in the white socket.
If problems persist try using a different AV cable.

Adjust the audio output on your playstation and the television depending upon how you're connecting it to the television for picture and sound.

For an hdmi cable between the television and the PS3 only then adjust the audio ouput to hdmi on the PS3.
You do not need to connect anything else between the television and the PS3 besides an hdmi cable.

If you are using the colored plug type component or composite cables then it is av.

If you are connecting with a fiber optic cable to a surround sound system then it is set to optical.

Depending on what television you are using you would also have to change the Playstation to 48khz/96khz

If you are sure that you have your TV on the correct input, you can try resetting the PS3's video settings using the following procedure:

1. Before changing cables, make sure the PlayStation 3 is turned off using the main power switch on the back of the PlayStation 3 (the 0 side is pressed down).
   
   
2. Unplug the power cord of the PlayStation 3 and television (or display) from the wall socket.
   
   
3. Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to the [HDMI OUT] port on the back of the PlayStation 3 system.
   
   
4. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable into the [HDMI Input] port of the TV or display monitor.
   
   
5. Plug the PlayStation 3 and television (or display) back in to the wall socket.
   
   
6. Turn the main power switch on the back of the PlayStation 3 back on (the line on the power button is now pressed).
   
   
7. While the PlayStation 3 system is in standby mode (red light on the front of the system), hold down the touch-sensitive On/Off button on the front of the system until the system goes into standby mode again . (So the light cycle would go from: red light to --> green light --> then back to red light) This will ensure that you have held down the On/Off button long enough to reset the Video Output Settings.
   
   
8. Turn ON the PlayStation 3 and once the system finishes powering up, the Video Output Settings will automatically reset to the standard resolution (or detect the current display output settings of your TV/monitor).

you have to connect the av cable(the one with 3 multiple ends with different colors) to the small rectangular port behind the console then connect the 3 colors to the matching port on your television.you connect the power cable to the other port and plug it in to a power outlet...then turn it on and you can switch it on from the front and switch on the controller and it would sync up..hope this helps

Hi,

Connect the cables to the ports on the back of the PlayStation console marked "audio out" and "video out." Make sure to match the same-coloucoloured plugs on the cables and the ports - yellow to yellow, red to red, white to white.

Connect the other ends of the audio/video cables to the ports on the back of the television or VCR marked "audio/video input.

Connect the AC power cord to the PlayStation game console and plug it into a wall socket for power.

Turn on the television, VCR (if included in the connection) and PlayStation console.

Press a button on the remote control to access the audio/video inputs for your television or VCR. The button will be labeled "video," "aux," "auxiliary," "tuner" or "line TV/video." You may need to set your television or VCR to channel 00, 90, 91 or 92. If the remote control does not have the buttons described here, check the product's instruction manual.

Hello,

I would suggest you follow these procedures, hook up your PlayStation 3 to a television. You must decide whether your TV supports high definitions (HD) resolution or not. For HD resolution, you must use a HDMI cable or a component video cable. These cables also support standard definition (SD) resolution. If you only have an SD television, you can use an S-video cable or an AV cable. These two can't support HD resolution.

Connect the PlayStation 3 to any audio equipment such as a A/V receiver or home entertainment system. Connect using a digital audio cable or, alternatively, run an HDMI cable to your A/V receiver then another HDMI cable to the television set.

Plug in the Ethernet cable, then connect the other end to a 10Base T jack from your home network. This connects you to the Internet and the world of online gaming.

Attach the AC power cord to the PlayStation 3, and then plug it into a surge protected wall outlet. Don't plug in the power cord until all other connections have been made as a chance of shock exists.

Perform the initial set up of the system. Turn on the power of the TV and game console, and follow the on-screen prompts. The pre-installed software guides you through the set up process.
Take care.

You have to connect the wire that has 3 separate wires at the end into your television according to the color. Plug the red wire into the red slot, yellow in the yellow and white in the white. You will then have to take the other end of the wire and plug it into the back of your playstation. Also, make sure to plug your playstation into the electrical outlet.

Try resetting the video output. Follow the steps below:

1. Before changing cables, make sure the PLAYSTATION 3 is turned off using the main power switch on the back of the PLAYSTATION 3 (the 0 side is pressed down).
   
   
2. Unplug the power cord of the PLAYSTATION 3 and television (or display) from the wall socket.
   
   
3. Make sure the AVI cable is connected to the [AVI OUT] port on the back of the PLAYSTATION 3 system.
   
   
4. Connect the other end of the AVI cable into the [AVI Input] port of the TV or display monitor.
   
   
5. Plug the PLAYSTATION 3 and television (or display) back in to the wall socket.
   
   
6. Turn the main power switch on the back of the PLAYSTATION 3 back on (the line on the power button is now pressed).
   
   
7. While the PLAYSTATION 3 system is in standby mode (red light on the front of the system), hold down the touch-sensitive On/Off button on the front of the system until the system goes into standby mode again . (So the light cycle would go from: red light to --> green light --> then back to red light) This will ensure that you have held down the On/Off button long enough to reset the Video Output Settings.
   
   
8. Turn ON the PLAYSTATION 3 and once the system finishes powering up, the Video Output Settings will automatically reset to the standard resolution (or detect the current display output settings of your TV/monitor).

Thank you for using fixya!

You need to put the tv in AUX 1 or AUX 2 channel. (wherever you plugged in the game)

Hi Audrey, you need to get some a av cable ie the av with the 3 av connections on both ends, then i would buy a av - skart adapter so it will plug into any tv, i would say for both around £10 for both.
and it will get you up and going..

All the best

John
