PS3 Bravia Theatre Sync - Blu-ray Forum

fruktsuppe · 04-23-2008, 03:42 PM

Does anyone know if the PS3 is compatable with Sony's Bravia Theatre Sync? I'm debating which hardware to get, and I can't find an answer to this anywhere...

Thanks!

Mine does not seem to be. I have the PS3 hooked up to my XBR4 via HDMI with audio going to an old Sony receiver via optic cable so far. I plan on getting the 4300 ES receiver, but I don't know if that would make any difference as far as the PS3 is concerned.

What exactly does Theater Sync do?

According to Sony, theater sync let's you press one button and all of your Sony products will come to life and work in unison. i.e. you press play on your Blu Ray player and your receiver and tv turn on and they are wild, riled, and totally dialed.

IN R E A L I T Y...it is a gimmick to get you to buy all sony products.

Totally cute. I give them edge for trying, but I dont' DO Sony receivers, so I'll pass.

It is completely great if you are into it...more power to you and I'd never give somebody shit for wanting the ease-icity, but I think overall...ya miiiiiiiiight not wanna pick your components based on this particular feature.

(and mind you...I have two Sony components and a PS3)

later,

Good luck with your setup

Enjoy.

That sounds really cool.. With your words I shall now only buy sony products

Actually I admit something terrible... I saw this sony flash drive, it was more expensive then any other flash drive at the same size, but it had a piano black and a chrome finish...

I bought and put into my ps3...

I think I might from now only going to buy sony products unless they do not make the product.

It was such a sexy flash drive though except if you touch it... lol

the ps3 does not support the bravia link i also have it hooked to a xbr 4 and a sony str-dg 1100. the bravia link works with receiver and tv which is nice but still have to use the controller turn the ps3 on. can't have everything i guess

Cant you do that with one of those expensive Remote Controls? This way you arent stuck with just Sony if you didnt want it...

kingofgrills · 04-23-2008, 07:35 PM

That's sort of funny that Sony's premier home device, the PS3, doesn't sync with all their other stuff.

I guess my Cinema Sync is my Harmony 880. Push one button, and I'm ready to go. - Wait a sec. -I have to get up and press the power button on my PS3.

Okay, now I'm ready to go. I guess the PS3 just doesn't play as well as it should with others yet...

My tv also reports that the ps3 is not a device it can take over through hdmi.

Basicly you get two free options,

Turn on tv device does... <nothing < turns on
Turn off tv device does... <nothing < turns off
