I recently had problems the other night when I took my PS3 to my brothers house...he has DVI in the back of his HDTV set and cable box...

I used the HDMI adaptor on his DVI plug to fit into the PS3...and no matter what, the system froze...

I tried to change the setting to something else....maybe component or even A/V and it didn't even switch...

this is something to keep an eye out on...it refused to play Ridge Racer 7 ...it would freeze sometime before the start of a race....


...however, when I brought it back home...it was as if nothing had happened...

I was able to find a good HDMI Switch finally that worked with the PS3. This one worked with the PS3.

Like the Smart Scan feature which selects the HDMI sources for me when powered on.

Great unit, as I said in post #12

Well maybe this is not what's happening, but since it works on your TV set

Does your brother's tv set have HDCP?

Another thing, before taking it next time, plug the AV cables and set your PS3 on your house to the regular 480 component or S-Video/composite, what lowest connection is on your brother's set (and AV cable that you have of course ) and go and hook it up at your brother's that way and see if it works, then add the HDMI and try to go up with the tests resolutions thing. Maybe it'll work?

Also could be the HDMI to DVI adapter etc.
(Also not related probably but there's a setting about automatic choosing of RGB or Yrb color)

(And for sure if the HDTV doesn't have HDCP the 1080p setting HDMI won't work)

I set my PS3 to AV and also the HDMI with AV because of the DVI/HDMI converter...

Ridge Racer 7 played but would freeze sometimes at the 1st load time after the game pops up....

I think it's the HDCP...I thought about this already and you bringing this up only makes sense then...

he has an older Hitachi HDTV...probably from 2003....maybe 2004...

also..the Psyclone is 200 bucks...perfect combination of quality and price...
