Sony S350 Blue Ray Player & Sony Bravia XBR5 - Blu-ray Forum

vish007 · 12-18-2008, 05:26 AM

Hi Everyone,

I just recently purchased a Sony Bravia 52" XBR5 & Sony S350 Blue Ray Player. When I try to connect the player using HDMI, the player does not recognize that it is hooked up via HDMI. The player does work when I component cables. I was wondering if it could be my HDMI cable, Blue Ray player, or TV. Also I have turned on the HDMI recognition within the Bravia Settings. Any advice would be much appreciated.

my first bit of advice to you would be to start using "blu-ray" instead of "blue-ray"

i only have experience with the ps3, but what i would try is resetting your player with the hdmi connected.

Okay I will try that. I reset the TV, but had not luck. I will try resetting the blu-ray player!

go into the setting on the bluray and change the audio and video to output via hdmi

If you have another HDMI capable device try the cable with that device to make sure its not the cable.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I think the cable works fine because the Bravia sees that it is an HDMI cable and that it is connected to a Blu Ray player. Do you think it could possible the player itself? The reason why I am asking this is that when I reset the player and then went to select the Output it doesn't even allow me to select HDMI. Was wondering if you guys ever saw that?
