possibly stupid question, does an HDMI cord have limitations? As in it doesn't support 1080i/p? but it will support 720? |

| [14:29] !King_Amazon!:
HDMI will support either |
| [14:29] !King_Amazon!:
DVI as well |
| [14:29] !King_Amazon!:
I believe |
| [14:30] !King_Amazon!:
The signal is down-converted by whatever media you are using to display the video, I believe |

wtf is up with my electronics today |
| [14:31] Kazilla:
Its like it won't stay on HDMI output.. |
| [14:32] Kazilla:
Once I finally reset it, and get it to accept the HDMI I get loud static for several seconds.. then it goes away. |
| [14:32] Kazilla:
Everything works fine. When I go to play a game, or turn the system off, it forgets it was HDMI and starts flickering |

Look on the cable and see if there is a switch from HDMI to some other format |
| [14:43] !King_Amazon!:
A lot of AV cables have that |
| [14:43] !King_Amazon!:
make sure the switch is fully set to HDMI and isn't loose |

| [14:44] Kazilla:
My HDMI cable doesn't have a switch |
| [14:45] Kazilla:
With HDMI plugged in, and it on the correct HDMI channel it flickers in and out, randomly.. and is never on long enough for you to see what is on screen. |

Sometimes when I have HDMI issues with my PS3, I have to turn my monitor off then on |
| [14:49] Kazilla:
I will try that in just a second.. |

we can get it to work with the standard AV cables, but when we manually switch it over to HDMI it sometimes takes, and sometimes doesn't. |
| [14:51] WetWired:
When you say manually switch, you mean? |
| [14:51] Kazilla:
Go through the display settings within the PS3 when its on with the AV cables. |

Hmm. |

WW... |

i feel happy ... im getting a guitar |
| [14:53] Kazilla:
turning the tv off then back on fixed it |
| [14:53] WetWired:
I think there's another another method to swtich the video where you hold down the power button when you turn the PS3 on, but I don't remember |
| [14:54] WetWired:
I've had issues with HDMI in general when the display device isn't tuned into the sender when the sender is turned on |
| [14:55] Kazilla:
how do i avoid the problem for now on? |
| [14:55] WetWired:
Happened with my old roommate's TV and the cable box |
| [14:55] Kazilla:
make sure my tv is set to hdmi before turning the ps3 on? |
| [14:55] WetWired:
Probably |
| [14:57] WetWired:
Also, if you still have sound issues, go into the sound configuration and turn off sound profiles that your TV doesn't support |
| [14:57] WetWired:
My PS3 thought that my Monitor supported some surround sound stuff that it had trouble with |
| [14:57] WetWired:
Turned off those sound output methods and no more problems |
| [14:58] WetWired:
* No more sound problems |
| [14:58] WetWired:
* Except for when my monitor isn't on HDMI when I turn on my PS3... |
| [15:01] jamer123:

Next question! |
| [15:59] WetWired:
uh oh |
| [15:59] Kazilla:
How do I move my uTorrent movie torrents to my ps3? Vuza had an option to transcode straight to the system, Utorrent doesn't. |
| [16:00] WetWired:
I think I've successfully used MEncode, but it's been a long, long time |
| [16:01] WetWired:
Does Vuza not have an encoding option not involving a torrent? |
| [16:02] Kazilla:
Vuze has an option when you right click a torrent "transcode for (xbox360, ps3)" |
| [16:02] Kazilla:
after you clicked that option the movie was directly on your ps3 or xbox |
| [16:03] WetWired:
I don't know of a way to remotely initiate a transfer to a PS3 |
| [16:03] WetWired:
But you can set up a media server that the PS3 will play from |
| [16:06] Kazilla:
do tell |
| [16:06] WetWired:
I dont' know the details, but there are apparently many options. Windows Media Center Edition/Ultimate Edition has a media server built in |
| [16:07] WetWired:
Some popular movie player apps also have a media server mode |
| [16:09] Kazilla:
for some reason, i cant even seen my computer that is networked into my system |
| [16:09] Kazilla:
VLC? |
| [16:12] WetWired:
Like I said, I've never really looked into it that far |
