HDTV Not Automatically Detected after Resetting Video Output Setting
With certain televisions, the PS3 may not automatically detect the HDMI source (TV) which it is plugged into, even after resetting the Video Output Setting (as described above). If resetting the Video Output Setting did not work, you may need to follow these steps to manually locate the HDMI source:
Connect both the AV Cable and the HDMI cable from the PS3 to the corresponding (AV and HDMI) ports on your TV.
Proceed with resetting the Video Output Setting on the PS3 again (follow the instructions above, and then continue to step 3).
Turn the TV channel to the corresponding "Input" or "Video" channel for the AV Cable connection.
Manually change the Video Output Settings to HDMI (follow the instructions below, then continue to step 5).
Now switch the "Input" or "Video" channel on the TV for the HDMI port the PS3 is cu rrently plugged into.
Accept the display settings for HDMI before the timer runs out (30 seconds). Highlight "Yes" and press the button.
You can now disconnect AV Cable from the PS3 and the TV, as it is no longer needed.
