Playstation 3 problem

7 replies

Hi

I have Playstation 3 connected to my bv7-32 mkI using ypbpr. Last weekend I accidentally reset the PS3, and now I only see a black screen on the tv.

I know all outputs on the PS3 is working. I have a picure both when connecting it using SCART, hdmi-DVI. And when i try to connect the ypbpr- green to the camera port on the side of the tv I also have a picture.

Now i am running out of ideas how to make it work.

Can anyone help?

Regards

Jesper

Try turning on the PS3 by holding the power button pressed, until you hear a second "chime". This will force the PS3 to send out picture on all connections. I don't know if this will work in your situation, as you describe having picture on the other connections, but it's worth a try.

Thanks for the reply!

Sadly this did not work either.

I'm starting to believe that the tv needs a repair🙁 

Hi,

This is a problem i have experienced many times before with early beovision 7's and the component input.

You need to connect your ps3 to another tv and set the output to be component 720p. Save it and then put it back in your b&o and it should work

Hi Louis

Thank you for replying.

I will try this although I don't see why this would help.

I'll return with the results.

SOLVED

Apparently the tv doesn't support resolutions below 720p on ypbpr??? I wasn't aware of that.

As i didn't have another tv at hand, I had to set the ps3 to output 720p on ypbpr in the dark.

Thank you Louis!
