Hi.

I have a question regarding my PS3 set up.

I have a Sony full HD tv.

When I play a Blu-ray movie my tv displays 1080/24 in the left corner. The quality of the picture is outstanding. The latest movie we saw was Up by Pixar and Disney. Truly amazing.

But when I insert a game my tv displays in left corner only 576. The games I have tried should all have 720 when played, but does not for some reason.

Can anyone help me? Is it the settings on my PS3 or tv that must be changed or is it something else.

because not all games even run in 1280x720 some ps3 games run at 1024x576 but scale to 720p.look at codmw1&2 the run at 600p but the back of the case says 720&1080p.its truly hard 2 say the native resolution of ps3&xbox360 games because of all the scaling and deceptive case decriptions.

What game is it that says that? Most of my games say its 720 and the rest is 1080. It might just be that specific game.

I have tried Uncharted 2 and GTA IV. But I have noticed that when I turn on the PS3 the 576 shows up on the XMB screen. It stays on 576 when I insert a game also.

these sony bravias show the true resolution thats coming into them when you go into menu.i wish all hdtv did this optionmy mom owns a bravia also when i put in codmw it shows 600p. i put in tomb raider it shows 576p and games like kz2 720p. because ps3 only displays 480\720\1080 so it doesnt do the weird rezilutions so it just scales some game.

OK, I can understand that, but that can not be the case regarding Uncharted 2(I guess)

It is I think besides you'll find most games don't run well in full 1080p.

Do you have a HDMI cable? Maybe you need to adjust your "Video Settings."

Ihave it all and I have checked Video Settings but I am not sure what to look for. My guess is that its related to a kind of "general" video setting since 576 shows when I am in XMB. But again, I am not certain what to look for.

Uncharted 2's native resolution is 1280x720. But anyway...

Make sure that 720P is selected in your output resolutions. Most games have a native resolution of 720P. If you don't have 720P selected, rather than upscaling the games to 1080, some games will be output at standard definition. Here's how to select output resolutions:

Settings >> Display Settings >> Video Output Settings

Just follow the steps listed here:
