Many modern video devices use a blue screen to indicate that the device is on but that there is no video signal to display. Older devices commonly used black, but the problem with that is it's harder to distinguish between "the screen doesn't work" and "something else isn't working."

Ive got a HDMI cable for your ps3 but it doesnt work when its pluged in?

The HDMI cable should be plugged in to an HDTV. If you have a Laptop or PC with a HDMI plug slot on it is also so it can be plugged in to a HDTV and is an out HDMI PLUG SLOT like the one that is on the PS3. Some HDMI cables that are sold are of low quality and do not work, stick with brand name cables that are not purchased from highly counterfeit sources in overseas locations.

What channel should you use for your ps3?

That depends on your TV. The PS3 for my HDTV has to be on an HDMI input that it is plugged into and not a channel.

You can not sadly. The reason is that when you switch from HDMI to your computer input, and you have a composite plugged it, the Xbox detects that the HDMI is no longer in use and it will automatically switch over to the composite, however the Xbox restarts when it does this.

How do hook up HDMI cable to PS3?

I plugged the HDMI cable into the HDTV and into the PS3. Then I went to the settings for both the HDTV and the PS3 slim and set them for HDMI and sync. When it works right putting a disc into the PS3 will turn on the HDTV and also switch the HDTV over to that HDMI input rather than a cable box or similar item even if it was on the cable box when you last used the HDTV.


Why cant you get a picture on your tv from your playstation connected by an HD cable?

You need to turn your HDTV to the HDMI input the PS3 was plugged into. The HDTV will only switch automatically when you turn your PS3 on after the HDMI system settings have been set up on both your PS3 and HDTV and only the slim PS3 have HDMI sync
