My ps3 is hooked up to my LG hd tv. When I try to watch netflix or play blue rays and video games it says invalid format off and on.Sometimes it doesnt even do that? what can i do to fix it? thanks.

Blu-ray players stream the same HD video as other Netflix-ready devices. Netflix streaming video works with several Blu-ray player brands -- including LG, Magnavox, Panasonic, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, Toshiba and others -- and any Blu-ray device plays Blu-ray discs from Netflix.

The PS3 will play blue ray discs on non HD TVs but unfortunately there will be no increase in quality when compared to a standard DVD.

If possible please rate this solution.

you have to have a hd tv

change the display settings to 1080i or 720p- his tv likely does not support 1080p.

its the game in the game there is a trade mark thing and it thinks u are copying so it does any thing to stop u by doing a error382

or

its your cords and your useing a really cheap brand the does not sut your tv and it is does not sut your ps3 so it will cut out and make errors

Are you sure the tv is 1080p capable? Usually when "mode is not supported" is displayed, it means that the tv can not handle the signal format that is being input to it. If you are using HDMI, then signal formatting is usually handled automatically. If you are using component video, you will probably have to tell the PS3 to step down the signal to either 1080i or 720p.

Had same problem with Panasonic PT60LC14 tv when connecting by HDMI cord to my PS3 and a blue ray disc was playing. First, read your tv manual to see what video inputs it supports . Then read the PS3 online manual (section on "video output settings").

For me I found out that my tv only supported 1080i (along with 480i/p, 780p) and the ps3 manual says blue ray outputs 1080p, so my blue ray discs will not play on my tv according to the PS3 manual. PS3 manual says to restart the ps3 (power off, then power on and HOLD for 5 seconds) - then the standard video output settings should be reset. Hopefully the ps3 menu will pop up at least. I haven't tried this yet but if it doesn't work, i'll may try to reset PS3 video out settings manually first using another tv that works with it ..

Hi there, Have you checked that the HDMI Cable is inserted into both your PS3 and HDTV correctly ? if the cable moves about in the HDMI port that causes static sometimes ! Also check that your cable isn't damaged.

If the problem persists. i would just Use your Composite (Red,Green,Blue) connection from your TV to your PS3. you said it doesnt have static problems. and Using the composite cable you can still get the Full 1080p Resolution on your TV that the PS3 can Up-Scale to!

Hope this Helps ?!
