I used my ps3 on an HD television at 1080p resoulution. Now I have moved it back to a standard definition display, and there is no picture or sound. I tried changing the setting on the HD television, but when I did so the screen went blank on that as well, and sound was still present. The settings have been moved to a 4:3 display and to the A/V cables, yet on a standard definition display, with A/V inputs, there is still no picture or sound. Why is this, and how would I fix this problem? Thank you.
Plug in both av cables and hdmi cable to your hd tv. Start the ps3. It will recognize the hdmi say yes. Now go to the display settings and select av.scart cable or whatever its called and select it when the screen goes black switch your hdtv input to av side or whever you have the av cables hooked up to. You will then see a fuzzy picture known as 480p. select yes.
Thats it.... It will now start up on av cables. Remember to change the audio from hdmi to av also.
Hope this helps.
Your display needs to be reset, Turn the ps3 off. Then turn the ps3 back on but continue to press the power button until you hear the beeps then it should work fine :)

It depends on your source video resolution. If you're willing to play in 4K, you can upscale your 1080p or 720p video to 4K resolution in advance. Here is the video tutorial:
After conversion, it will be played in 4K on your TV. Of course, it's all based on that your TV supports 4K.
This is not a digital TV. This TV has only an NTSC (analog) tuner. A converter will be needed to tune digital broadcast TV stations, your CATV or satellite company supplies a converter to allow this set to display programs.
The display is limited to "480P" resolution, called "Enhanced Definition", which is a step up from the traditional NTSC standard of "480i" resolution or "Standard Definition". ("P is "progressive scan" and "i" is "interlaced scan"). Progressive scan provides a better picture quality when compared to interlaced scan images. High Definition or "HD" is a signal that contains data that allows display of images with 720P, 1080i and 1080P resolutions (the larger numbers indicate more information, or higher picture quality). Your TV will receive all signals, SD, ED and HD, but will down convert to ED. Signals can be brought into the set via 2 composite-video connections, 1 each component- and S-video, an RF
antenna/cable-box/VCR input, and a 15-pin D-Sub analog RGB input. More info can be found here.
I hope this helps and good luck! Please rate my reply. Thank you.
When you switched cables, you mean you changed the cord running from the PS3 to the TV? HD content requires an HDMI connection from the PS3 to the TV. It is possible that when you changed cables, you replaced the PS3's HDMI cable with Component Cables which can only deliver in Standard Definition and not in High Definition (720p, 1080i and 1080p).

If by HD compatible you're talking about the new digital signal, if
you're TV is more than 3 years old, the answer is no. However, if
you're talking about being capable of displaying a high definition
picture (720p or 1018i or 1080p) then you can determine this by looking
at the inputs on the back of the set. If you have component inputs
which are red, blue, and green for video and a red and white for audio,
or an HDMI input, then, yes, the TV is HD ready. S-video and composite
video (yellow video input) cannot support a high definition picture.

Make sure you have subscribed to a HDTV service with your television provider.
Also, make sure that all of the devices that are connected to your television are HD devices, connected with a HDMI cable, not a coaxial or RCA jack.
HDTVs aren't magical TVs : everything from the source to the television, including your home theater and PVR, if any, must be HD-compatible in order for the picture on your screen to be in high definition.
On BRAVIA screens, I know that, when you select an input, it will briefly show the definition of the source in the corner of the screen. You must make sure it's 1080p. If it's anything other than 1080p, your picture is not in HD.
I remember that my grandparents had a similar problem. It turns out their BRAVIA television was displaying a low quality picture (480i), even though they had subscribed to a HDTV service, just because their satellite receiver was not configured correctly.
So maybe the solution is simply to make sure that each of your devices is configured to display only the highest resolution available (usually 1080p) in order to enjoy the best picture quality. Do not trust "automatic" quality settings, because they tend to select lower quality settings (such as 720p, which is not True HD), when they might be able to display true high definition pictures (1080p).
the tv has a configaration that conveys the sets focus on both audio and video performance. full hd resolution of 1920-1080 pixels.
hdmi inputs allow connection of the generation of 1080p sources for the systems which offer 1080p outputs
Hi - Here is a description of a few terms that might help, especially if you're in the market for a tv. If this answers your question PLEASE rate this as fixed. If you need more help just add a comment and I'll be glad to assist you further. Thanks.
High definition television is the highest form of digital television. It has a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is the same as a movie theater screen. This is possibly HD’s biggest selling point. The other is the resolution. High definition is the best available picture on a television. It comes in three different flavors: 720p, 1080i and 1080p. What do 720p, 1080i and 1080p mean?
High definition programs are encoded with a type of resolution: 720p, 1080i or 1080p. The number stands for the amount of lines embedded within the signal. The letter describes the type of scan the television uses to display the picture. The ‘i’ means interlaced and the ‘p’ means progressive. Why does the amount of lines matter?
The number of lines on a television is important because it allows for greater detail in the image. This is a similar concept to digital photos and how dpi determines print quality. The type of televisions all of us grew up watching had 480 visible lines on the screen. By doubling the amount of lines in combination with the type of scan, HD essentially doubles the quality of picture. Does it matter if the resolution is interlaced or progressive?
The type of scan is arguable considering the amount of lines for each HD format. Progressive scan is a better type of scan because it doubles the amount of times the TV displays the image per one second in comparison to interlaced. Still, the difference between 720p and 1080i is so minimal that is isn’t an issue at all. While 1080p is better than 720p and 1080i, very few programs are made in this resolution so it really isn’t a factor right now…and, it might never be.
