Use PS3 for music discs without turning on TV? - Blu-ray Forum

m_tyson · 09-26-2007, 05:24 PM

My setup is: PS3 -> HDMI -> Receiver (Yammy RX-V661) -> HDMI -> Projector (Panny AX-100).

Sometimes I would like to put a CD or Blu-ray concert disc in the PS3 drive and listen to music without firing up the projector bulb. It seems like the PS3 won't start to autoplay until after it detects that my projector is turned on.

Any suggestions, insight? TIA

That is odd. I assume that you have the autorun feature turned on. I just tried it, and it worked for me. I dont know if for some insane reasons that is a problem strickly pertaining to projectors.

sorry but I'm in a similiar situation as the OP and I'm unfamiliar with the autorun function on PS3. How do I set that up on the PS3?

Mine did it automatically right out of the box... but I'm doing HDMI direct to the TV and Optical for audio to the receiver, dunno if that would make a difference?

remember the button and placement of XMB for music, then you're done.....
