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.


Is a PS3 HDMI or component?

HDMI gives a potentially higher signal quality than component video - but whether you will get higher picture quality depends on the quality of your input signal. Blu ray needs HDMI, but anything at 720i or lower will get by on component.


Your sony flat screen was working fine with your PS3 but now when you turn your PS3 on it says no signal What is wrong?

It is your TV that is saying no signal and not the PS3. When it happens to me it is when the TV is not switched to the correct source. For me this is when the HDTV is still at the PS3 source of HDMI or HDMI-3 plug and not the cable HDMI plug or HDMI-1. It can also happen when you purchase a cheap HDMI cable that stops working or when something is just disconnected from either end of the PS3 A/V or HDMI cable


How do you play PS3 games on bluray?

If you mean How do you Play PS3 games on High Resolution using a PS3 then it must be connected to a HDTV with a HDMI or component cable and the PS3 setting menu should be for HD. PS3 games will not play on a Blue Ray disc Player that is not the PS3 console


Do you have to have an HDMI wire for a ps3 if you switched it from the red white and yellow cord?

You can not have a HDMI Cable and a A/V cable connected at the same time on a PS3. Only one spot exists to plug it in at the back of the PS3. If you do not use the A/V cable the came with the PS3 there are optional S video Cables and also Optional Component Cables that can be used for HDTVs besides using a HDMI cable

You don't need to. The PS3 comes with the A/V cable that has HDMI input for the side that goes into the PS3 and three RCA color coded plugs on the other side.

I plugged an HDMI cable into my ps3 and the screen went blank i have tried unplugging the HDMI cable and restarting the system but it hasn't worked what can i do?

It could possibly be because you have it on the wrong channel once it goes blank. That was the problem I had with it anyway. If you were using a normal cable before you will need to remove it, then reset your ps3.

Is the HDMI cable for PS3 good?

Connecting the PS3 to a HDTV with HDMI inputs is best rather than only good when using an HDMI cable. It allows a single cable to easily connect with an excellent connection and only a single plug and also allows a sync between the two devices. When I put a disc in the PS3 the TV turns on and switches to the PS3 from my Cable box. If the TV is already on it switches the HDTV from cable over to the PS3 and back when I turn off the PS3. The PS3 HDMI cable sold by Sony is a good quality cable and support all the features of the PS3, namely HDMI 1.4A with 3D video. It is also cheaper than some other HDMI cables that are sold in the TV area of most consumer electronics stores. When I purchased by HDMI cable at Walmart that store was out of the PS3 HDMI cable and I purchased the Sony Flat HDMI cable for a little more. Most named brand cables work fine and you should never pay full retail for a HDMI cable. You do not have to purchase a PS3 cable and many of the other Sony cables work fine. Currently Walmart has the Sony HDMI Cable w/ USB Cable Pack (PS3) for $34.97 and it is the same price as just the Sony 6.5' HDMI Cable (PS3) and without the extra charging cable

As long as the TV has an HDMI port, then it should work.


How do you connect PS3 to your TV?

The best way to connect the PS3 to a TV is with an HDMI cable. You must have a TV with HDMI input and you must purchase the cable as it does not come with the PS3. If your TV does not have an input for an HDMI cable or you do not want to purchase the cable you can use the color coded plugs on the cable that comes with the slim PS3 game console to plug it into your TV and the HDMI plug into your PS3 console.
