PS3 wont go out of 480i

leave the ps3 on 480i

plug in new t.v

when the ps3 is off

hold the power button for 10 seconds or so, you should hear 2 beeps and by doing this it tells the ps3 to automatically do the best settings

try it.

you are probably still using the composite cables (yellow, white, red) that came with it.

You will need either component (dark red, blue, green, white, light red) or hdmi cable.

this is what i am thinking too

the brand doesn't make a difference with these cables (the more expensive cables will not deliver any better than the cheaper ones).jimm895

speaking of that...enjoy

So why does my ps3 randomly change the resolution every time I load a game?

Yes, I have an hdmi cable. My tv is a vizio galleria 1080p. It seriously seems random.. sometimes 480,720 or 1080. never 1080i though... It's a pain in my f'n A to restart games until they randomly pop up in 1080 instead of 480.

not all games support 1080p. If the game supports 1080i, it will switch to that resolution when you play the game. If the game is only 720p, then it will switch to 720p when starting the game. The back of the box tells you what resolutions it supports.

As for randomily picking a resolution, it shouldn't be doing that.

There may be a problem with the TV's hardware or software.

What cables are you using?BenderUnit22

that's what I was thinking. I figure he's using the cables that came with his ps3, which only go up to 480i.

You have to use either an HDMI or Component cable.
