From the day I bought my PS3, I’ve had it hooked up to our flatscreen with an HDMI cable. But recently we had to sell our televisions, and I found need to hook it up to an old standard definition set. The problem I found is that the AV output cables just wouldn’t work. I tried it on more than one TV just to check, and I couldn’t get any signal from the Playstation 3’s AV cables.<\/p>\n

Googling around, I managed to find the solution. You’ve got to reset the PS3’s video settings. When you turn on the PS3, rather than using the controller, hold down the power button for 5 seconds or so. The thing will beep, and then the AV cables should work. Viola. Hopefully this helps somebody out. It drove me nuts for the hour or so before I thought to search online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
