BV7-40 mkIII doesn't show PS3 start-up or bluray

9 replies

After some time, I connected my PS3 again via HDMI. My BV740-MKIII has SW 4.17

Before everything worked just fine, but now: I don't see the start-up screen anymore, but do hear sound. It also plays stored games, but no bluray's. I can't tell if the problem started after the upgrade to SW 4.17

Connected to another (Philips) LCD-tv, everything works ok.

Any solutions?!

 

 

anyone got any info on this i have a PS3 and soon a MK3 so want to know it will work perfectly i know HDMI can be hard work detecting at times.

Try switching to any other source, wait untill you have picture and sound, and then switch back.  I've seen similar problems with some DirecTV Satellite receivers.

If the PS3 is off, press and hold the power on button for about 10secs, the PS3 will beep, and the video/audio settings will be reset, you can then step through the PS3 init procedure again.

Sometimes on mine I loose the audio, but if I press DTV on the Beo4, wait, then press VMEM (for my PS3) then then sound comes back, weird...

RussR and JoC,

Will try tonight and let you know if it worked.

Thanks.

JoC,

You were right: it works again! Thanks again.

 

I did not think of the reset settings function i have used this b4

I have just ordered my MK3 and willbe connecting PS3 to my TV via HDMI and wanted to know if you have the HDMI and SPDIF connected or if its all being done with the HDMI

I know my sky box will use HDMI and TOSLINK / SPDIF as sky hdmi does not contain dobly but the PS3 does so will it work or do i need to buy another TOSHLINK and convertor to SPDIF
