You need a tv with hdmi to connect too then change settings back to normal but you need it connected to both hdmi and component av at once so you can switch between them both to save the settings. so when you change from hdmi to av you need to change your tv channel from hdmi to either video 1 or 2 then save your settings... hope this helps!

Trying to hook up PS3 to Panasonic viera LCD hdtv with HDMI cable and tv is not reading it and has no picture or sound. What may be the problem? Thanks!

hi,
ur ps3's HDMI out is a full hd video (1080p). if u r tv does not support full hd this problem can occur. do one thing. connect the ps3 to any full hd tv and go to its video setup, then down scale its video resolution to 1080i. after that connect the ps3 to ur tv. u will surely get video.

Hey guys i gave my ps3 to a shop in st neots to get my hd working and he blew out all the dust with a air gun and changed the settings and said the ps3 is set up for hd now and it worked on the shop tv but...

When changing the display mode of the PS3 you must be in the correct mode and be using the correct wire. If in the shop it was last set up in HD mode, then you must be using an HD cable (component cable(wire with red/yellow/white) will not work. Also, make sure that your TV can handle the resolution it is set in. If your TV at best handles 720p and the PS3 is set in 1080, then you will have to hook it up to a TV with 1080 to change it back or you will not get a picture.

No picture or sound on ordinary TV after hooking up with HD TV

You system is still out-putting through the HDMI cable. Press & hold the "on" button after the system is already on, it should go back to regular factory settings & show up on your screen.
