how to change the playstation 3 to hd using component cable these are for those who have an older hdtv that doesn't have hdmi input if you look at the back side of the playstation 3, i'm using a component cable. i disconnected the hdmi cable for this video. to change the playstation 3 to hd using component cable you have to go to "settings"
3 color cable for tv, "display settings" "video output settings" change it to "component" "change"
then "yes" now these are the resolutions. you have to gradually increase the resolution because some older hdtv cannot accept 1080p so you have to gradually increase it. let's try "480p" first, then press forward then "yes" "finish" let's do it again!
"720p" then forward "yes" "1080i" when you check the 1080i make sure not to uncheck the 720p because many playstation 3 game disc are in 720p if you uncheck the 720p when you check the 1080i if the playstation 3 game disc does not support 1080i it will display in standard definition in 480 so never uncheck the 720p when you check the 1080i
okay forward finally "1080p" when you check the 1080p, make sure not to uncheck the lower resolutions for the same reason.
okay, forward to check whether it's really indeed 1080p, i'm gonna press the display button of the tv's remote control. there. it's 1080p using component cable.
