HDMI 1.0? Will this be a problem w/ hooking up a PS3?
1738292
I also have been considering this TV and wondering about the HDMI 1.0 issue. Since so far no knowledgable techie has chirped in I did a little of my own research, and here is what I found out. This all comes from an industry web site hdmi.org ------------------------ The initial HDMI 1.0 specification was released in December 2002. Version 1.1 was released in May 2004. Version 1.2 was released in August of 2005. Version 1.2a was released in December of 2005. Version 1.3 was released in June of 2006. Q. What functionality was added to each specification? The following provides an overview of major functionality added to each version of HDMI HDMI 1.1 Support for DVD Audio ------------------------------- So my guess is that like the poster said it will not take the audio from his dvd player in the hdmi input, but I assume he could bring the audio in through other inputs assuming his dvd player has other outputs. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can elaborte on this, meanwhile I think I'll move on and look for a set that has at least a HDMI 1.1 interface since using a DVD player is one thing I want to do with it.

I hook my PS3 to this monitor using one of the side hdmi ports. I believe you cannot use the DVI or the hdmi port that is on the rear of the panel. the PS3 will play 3D blu rays just fine. For a PC you should use the DVI port to get the 120hz refresh rate.

yes. you need to buy "HDMI Multi-Channel PCM 5.1 7.1 Surround Audio Decoder" so you can use it for ps3 if you buy check eBay for it

I have no experience with ps3 and separate outputs to different tv's. However it should work OK?

It has a HDMI input, so it would work with a Ps3 no problem, however it maxes out at 720P, so don't expect top resolution. Also the thing is super loud from the fans. SUPER loud. I would suggest looking at the similar benq model if you are looking for small.

Just connect the HDMI from PS3 to your TV directly and the Optical digital Out of the PS3 to the receiver. Once you have connected it to the receiver then make sure that you are selecting the right input by pressing the digital input button on the front of the receiver(e.g. OPT1/OPT2). This is the easiest solution. This means you have to have two cables one HDMI cable from PS3 to TV and one Optical digital cable from PS3 to the receiver. One other thing, you have to change the setup on your PS3 too. You have to select the cable type for Audio output. Do not select HDMI for Audio output on PS3. It won't work as this receiver does not support HDMI for Audio. Just connect the HDMI from PS3 to your TV directly and the Optical digital Out of the PS3 to the receiver.

According to the research I did - the short answer is "yes". The splitter does not care what source the HDM signal originates from......it's only a signal splitter. PS3 is a 1.3HDMI compatible system - and should work with the splitter..........in theory anyway. That's the best I can tell you.

No, the PS3 lacks an IR Port. Checkout this for starters: http://reviews.cnet.com/4321-7847_7-6644963.html

HDMI 1.1 and 1.3 use the same cables and connectors. HDMI 1.1 can transfer enough data to do 1080p at 60Hz. There is no way this TV (or any TV currently on the market) can handle any more data than that. HDMI 1.3 is a target that TV makers will be shooting for in a couple years. Here is a press release from hdmi. http://www.hdmi.org/press/pr/pr_20060622.asp "Products implementing the new HDMI specification will continue to be backward compatible with earlier HDMI products." Don't fear, your PS3 will work great.

Nope. This is taking the signal output via analog component and converting it to a digital hdmi signal. Without getting technical about it, the PS1 only outputs 240P so the best you could do is find one of the custom job scart cables rigged for RGB and a scart to hdmi converter box (or XRGB Mini for best results) but bottom line the signal output via component is totally different.

All you need is a HDMI cable (1.3, 1080p supported) goint out from your PS3 to back of the 606 (game.tv HDMI input), and only one output from the 606 to the HDTV., that is it, no other cable involved. HDMI stands for high def multimedia interface, it does both Viedo and Audio. It is the future.

I know this is old, but I have to disagree; of the models discussed here, only THIS one will handle "high-def" (uncompressed) surround sound from the PS3. The Sony that Knowledge Forest posted has no HDMI inputs; its HDMI output is for the DVD changer only. The Yamaha & Onkyo you suggested have only "pass-thru" HDMI inputs, which merely pass the sound from the HDMI input on to the TV. For all three, the only way to get surround sound to the receiver is by digital optical/coax cables, which handle only DVD-quality surround sound (uncompressed LPCM 2.0 or lossy-compression DD 5.1 & DTS 5.1/6.1)--*not* the newest, lossless HD audio formats (LPCM, Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio, all at up to 7.1) on Blu-rays & PS3 games. The HT-SS2300 (as well as its predecessor HT-SS2000 and successor HT-SS360), however, will receive high-def LPCM sound over the HDMI connection; that's exactly what the PS3 outputs over HDMI from DVDs, PS3 games & especially Blu-rays. The PS3 will decode all the HD formats and send them to this receiver as LPCM 5.1. Thus, this model should produce BETTER sound than the others discussed earlier. To get HD sound from a current Yamaha or Onkyo model, you'd have to upgrade to a more expensive receiver that can actually decode TrueHD or DTS-HD MA; but that's totally useless for the PS3 (though not for the newest high-end Blu-ray players). Since the PS3 came out before HDMI 1.3, it cannot bitstream those formats; it only decodes them to LPCM. However, since TrueHD & DTS-HD MA are merely "lossless" compression (like a Zip file) of the original LPCM, you still get the same HD sound; you just won't see a Dolby or DTS light on your receiver. (To see the logo on your TV screen, press the "Display" button on the PS3 Bluetooth remote.) For PS3 owners, this is the BEST home theater system out there for the money, unless you need fancier speakers or other special features.

Just use the RCA cables that came with the ps3, and set the audio feature under "settings" to RCA. Your ps3 will still display with hdmi cable and then output audio with RCA. Also if you're using RCA to output audio, be sure to buy one of these with this specific speaker system Logitech 5.1 Game Console Adapter Convert Rca Plugs To A Single 1/8 (Discontinued by Manufacturer)This adapter will give your ps3 5.1 channel surround sound without having to use the lame matrix mode.

I have directv connected to hdmi one and PS3 connected to HDMI 2 and have an audio cable running from projector to Amp. Not sure about firmware

Yes, mine works fine with our PS3 - it has an HDMI interface. I don't have any problems with the unit fan being loud. My unit is very quiet.

I have never use this display for gaming purposes. If the ps3 or 4 has an HDMI output, it should work just fine.
