I am trying to hook up my ps3 but it says change resolution source

The source resolution is determined by your choice of connected video device. For example; If you are using the RCA jack cord that comes with every PS3, then your resolution will be very low, and you can't change it. If you are using the HDMI connection to a HD TV, then the system automatically selects the correct resolution ratio for the TV. (720-1080p) Also note, that going between watching a video, or blueray movie, and a game, most games have the ability to change the resolution automatically as well. An example of this, is watching NETFLIX. The system can detect 720p, then you begin to play a game (COD AW) it detects and changes to 1080p.

Temporarily hook the Playstation up to another television and change the resolution in the display settings to 1080i and try again. If that does not work, try lowering the resolution again to 720p. If this set has component video input (Red, Green, Blue video cables) try that as well if possible. In fact, this may be the only way to hook this up and have it work in high definition because this set may not be HDCP compliant. You will have to check the owner's manual for its specifications. If all else fails you will have to use the composite (yellow) video cable to hook it up. It won't look pretty, but it should work. Good luck.

My brother had this problem too I think it happen when u have been using the pa3 with a non hd tv and then switch to a hd tv, try hooking it up to a normal (older) tv to change the resolution to sd (standard definition) then hook it back up to a hd tv and it should put up a message saying it's detected a hd source and prompts u to change it. Hope this helps mate Bogsy

I have the same ******* problem hold the button that turns. On your ps3 till it beeps then turn your screen back on

You need to lower the video resolution output of the PS3, it is set too high for he TV to display, It should be set to the native resolution of the TV. Just Google 'PS3 VIDEO RESOLUTION'

You change the video resolution at the video source, in this case, your PS3, not at the monitor. VS 15 has 1024 x 768 60Hz Maximum Resolution, so your PS3 cannot be higher.
You need to google 'how to change PS3 video resolution' If the PS3 resolution is set to high, the VS15 will display Out of range/format/video not support.

change screen resolution of PS3 to what the LCD can handle

You will need to download the converter program

'DPM Mode' coming from your display means that it isn't happy with the resolution it's seeing coming from the input (your DVD) and so the display goes to sleep.
Presumably you have its resolution set at 1280 x 768 for the Blu-Ray DVDs? In which case you need to try setting the monitor resolution to 720 x 480 before watching the standard DVDs. That may work, at any rate. If not... well, I'm stumped... Source(s): http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthrea…

2 possible solutions. The first one is the most important.

First go to the system menu, on the left.
then scroll down to display settings.
choose the first option
if you are displaying though a hdmi adaptor, click on hdmi
then click automatic.
store settings.

This will change the display resolution of the PS3 to the same as the source.

The second way, and probably better one if it works for you, is to upscale the DVD.

To do this, go to the settings menu
scroll to the DVD settings menu
choose DVD upscaler.
try different settings to see what works best on your TV, but try normal first.

If this one works then change the display settings to display the maximum res of your TV all the time.
Check the resolution of your display and the player. Put them in order so that the signal doesn't go beyond the resolution of the display.

If this doesn't work, check out the link below. Source(s): http://www.cnet.com.au/tvs/0,239035250,3…

What you need to do is hook up your PS3 to a different tv. Then in Display setting on the PS3 change it to 480p. Hook it up to your vizio and while on the ps3, change it back to 1080p. Most Vizios don't have a Progressive scan that adjusts to the output settings of the PS3 (or other device) .

you cannot fit a pint of water into a half pint glass... in other words you have the ps3 sending a picture that has too much information and resolution for the 720 display you are using.. use another connection method to hook up your ps3 to the tv or use a friends tv that has the higher resolution capabilities and then change the output option in your ps3 it will then work ok on your tv
