VinceNoir Posted 4 April 2011 Share Posted 4 April 2011 Allright, I know a little about electronics and that, but this problem is really weird and quite hard to explain, and if any of you can provide the slightest bit of help, it will be much appreciated! This evening I invited a mate over to play some Fifa on my PS3. Switched on the machine and changed the channel to "Hdmi 2" which is the channel my PS3 runs on, obviously. The problem here though, was that no picture turned up. And no sound either.. Immediately after this, I discovered that the TV channels (that run from "Hdmi 1") did not work either. So it's obviously a problem with the HDMI outputs(? not sure if that's what they're called).. Anyway, has anyone else here had a similar problem, or know of a solution? I've never encountered a problem like that before, and the weird thing is, that I had been playing Fifa myself about 6 hours ago, where it worked perfectly. Please help!!

Dylan Posted 4 April 2011 Share Posted 4 April 2011 Have you removed the HDMI cable since using it last? I know if you change between Scart/HDMI you have to reset the display/audio settings or something each time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceNoir Posted 4 April 2011 Author Share Posted 4 April 2011 Not at all.. I've got no idea what's up with it. Will have a look tomorrow Cheers anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUJJIFOX Posted 4 April 2011 Share Posted 4 April 2011 try removing the plug from both the tv and the ps3 and leave it for 5mins, then plug back in and see. I had a similar problem with my monitor where there was a 'handshake' problem with the HDMI between ps3 and monitor. Simple plug out and in may solve it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted 4 April 2011 Share Posted 4 April 2011 Refers to the PS3: Hold your finger on the Power button for 6-10 seconds, you should hear two beeps. A normal power-off is only 2 seconds or so, but if you hold your finger there for 6-10 secs it causes a hardware reset which should reset your video output to the default composite cable. After the second beep, you can let go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
