PS3 Automatically play movie when.... - Blu-ray Forum

Caligula · 02-13-2008, 04:42 AM

You switch from AV1 (Cable) to HDMI 1 (ps3) after you inserted Blu-ray in while watching TV on AV1? I noticed that my ps3 intend wait for me to switch TV output to HDMI1 then it will automatically play blu ray disc and show previews even if i inserted movie 10 mins ago. PS3 will not play movie until i switch to hdmi. Damn blu-ray.com for keeping me 10 mins here lol..

Does your ps3 do that? Sorry if there were thread about it, i tried find it first and i didnt.

ps3 wont play disc untl you are on hdmi output. Everytime i switch av1 to hdmi and ps3 start play the disc when i already put disc in on AV1 (regular cable box) output and it didnt play disc while im watching regular tv show on av1.. hope this clear up?

I'm not sure what you're trying to say either.

You can turn off Auto-play from the BD options menu, if that's what you're asking about.

i dont mind the autoplay, i just liked it when ps3 wait for me to switch other output where hdmi is hooked so i dont miss no preview or whatsoever on disc while im on other channel.

i thought autoplay will only autoplay everytime disc are inserted whether im on hdmi output or not. but my ps3 doesnt do autoplay while im on other output which was cool for it to wait for me to watch blu-ray.

I think that has happened to me but I'd have to test it again to be sure. I still forget to change the input occasionally but I turned off autoplay a long while back so that's why I'm not sure anymore.

Sounds like a cool feature, I've never used the autostart though, I have my system on all the time with a disc in it, but I'm usually doing stuff on the xmb or playing music...so I've never had a use for the disc to begin playing on its own. Its cool that it will wait for you to be in the correct connection/resolution before playing though.
