Most HDMI plugs on computers are out plugs meant to connect the computer to a HDTV just like the plug on the back of PS3 is meant to do.
If you have an HDMI cable you can connect them but you won't be able to display the PS3 on the computer.
What you do is hook it up to your PS3 then to your T.V then go to Display Settings on your PS3 and click HDMI and it's going to ask you to switch to the HDMI source then you click ok. It increases the picture and sound making the picture HD and sound clearer. Hope I helped.
Usually yes. BenQ is a computer monitor manufacturer and they make various Computer Monitors with varying feature sets. Most of their monitors contain HDMI ports but not all of them do. A PS3 also contains an HDMI port. If your monitor contains the same type of port as the PS3 then the monitor may be connected to the PS3 via an HDMI cable. However, if you want to play the PS3 with sound, then the monitor must either have built-in speakers, or have a headphone or audio-out jack that you can plug speakers or headphones into. Not all computer screens have these features, so you should check that they support these features before you purchase the monitor.
The optical output of the PS3 can be connected to older surround sound receivers. Newer receivers can be connected with the HDMI cable.
no
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.
You can connect a sound system through your TV or the Sonystyle.com site has a new PS3 sound system for under $200 that was designed for the PS3
you have to buy the hdmi cable that connects the ps3 to the tv. also you have to have the hdmi setting on the tv to view it and you have to change the settings on the ps3 to read hdmi not default. the instructions should all be in the ps3 handbook that came with the system.
No the laptop HDMI would allow the laptop to display on your HDTV just like the PS3 HDMI does or a PC HDMI does
No you can use the A/V cable that came with the PS3. HDMI or a PS3 Component Cable is required for HD
You plug one end of the HDMI cable into the PS3 and the other into the HDTV
To connect the PS3 to a HDTV you need an HDMI cable if your HDTV has an HDMI connection, if it doesn't you need a PS3 component cable.
