no sound with PS3 and HDMI Solved

Question

Hello,
I have a 32-inch Daewoo LCD screen, I'm connected directly via HDMI from the screen to the console, and unfortunately, I have no sound, the audio format over HDMI is PCM. Could the problem be that my screen doesn't support the audio format? Knowing that it works when I connect via RCA, thank you for your help and best wishes to everyone.

look in your audio settings and set it to automatic   --

What is the exact model of your television? Is it the LCD Daewoo DLP3212?
In that case, it's normal because it has a DVI-D digital input... which only carries the video, not the audio. Only HDMI connections carry both audio and video.
So you'll need to connect the "video" to your LCD and the audio, via the DIGITAL OUT (optical fiber) connection to a home theater amplifier.

Hoping I could help you ;-)

Hi Krystof, I have the DLP-32C2 model. Yes, I have a DV-I, HDMI, YUV, RCA connection. I'm connected via HDMI, but I just noticed that I have another small input next to it for audio; it's not the optical input, it's another one next to the HDMI.

Hum ... I can't find the manual online! What does your manual say about the connections?

le vieux moine · Answer

Yes, in fact, my HDMI connection only reproduces the picture; there is another input for the sound, it looks like an RCA, it's just a small round black input, which also serves to get sound on a PC, so the audio and video are connected separately, and I don't think I can have both on the PS3. What do you think? I think I have to connect it using YUV.

Tof_92 · Answer

So, if there's just one RCA input, which should be black, it's for a coaxial cable.
If you have 2 inputs, red and white, it's for standard stereo.

Switching to YUV won't change your sound issue; you'll just lose resolution.

Can't you connect your PS3 "video" to the HDMI and connect your PS3 "audio" to another input on your TV?

le vieux moine · Answer

Yes, that's it, you found the right word, "coaxial" for the HDMI. Well, I thought about it as you told me. If you want, on my PS3, I connected the HDMI and the RCA for audio, but the screen only takes everything from the HDMI. In my PS3 settings, I set the video to HDMI and the audio to RCA, and it doesn't work. Otherwise, for YUV, with the red, green, and blue, there is the red and white for audio; it worked with my box, so I think it should also work for the PS3. So there you go. If you’ve found the solution, it would be welcome. In the meantime, I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year 2008.

Tof_92 · Answer

In the System settings > Audio of the PS3, you can choose the type of output:
* HDMI: which doesn’t work in your case
* Optical: which is useless because Fiber Optic, and you have a Coaxial input
* RCA & Co: in this case, you just need to connect your RCA cable provided with the PS3, and only use the audio cables, red & white, to produce sound on your TV

So that doesn’t work? You can’t have a video input on your TV in HDMI and sound in RCA?

If that’s the case, you indeed have the YUV solution left, which works very well. Moreover, for my part, I don’t play any games at 1024p... most are in 720p and therefore supported by YUV.

Uh yes, that should work, that's what I did but it doesn't work.

Hello,

I had exactly the same problem as you with a Daewoo 82 cm! I scratched my head for several hours and then I simply unplugged the PS3 and the TV. I waited 1 minute and then I plugged everything back in... The sound came back ;)
Give it a try and let me know if it worked for you :)

Hello,

I have the same problem as you and the same TV.
However, it always worked until this weekend.
I unplugged, plugged it back in, blew into the cables, nothing!!!
I turned the TV off and on several times, itch of wel!!! Nothing!!! Nada!!!!
Avoid solutions like "plug your cable YZ29982WRZE into the 5635GTREF socket of your home theater."
The problem is NO SOUND WITH HDMI PS3 LCD DAEWOO 32 INCH HD READY.
I have to settle for lousy quality to use the PS3 with the old-fashioned cables.
DAEWOO is just as crappy as it sounds.

So I had the same problem, sound in the menu or while listening to music, but for playing the game there was absolutely no sound at all. So I turned off the power to the console and the TV for a few minutes, and now it works perfectly!

solus · Answer

Je pense qu'il y a un sens sur le câble HDMI.

Tiika winch · Answer

Apparently, the solution is to unplug your HDMI cable, blow on it, and plug it back in.

Mychico · Answer

Hello, for my part, I unplugged my PS3, then I plugged it back in and pressed the power button on the PS3 for 5 seconds, and it asks you if the sound and image settings are good...

And magically it works (at least it worked for me and I had the same problem > no sound when I was playing a game)

You plug in the provided SCART connector along with your HDMI cable, go to sound settings, choose the first thing that determines the input mode, scroll down and you have the SCART + HDMI option, select that and the problem is solved.

blackdriver · Answer

Hello, same problem, I bought a second-hand PS3 and when I tested it at the seller's place, everything worked fine, the sound, etc... I get home, the startup sound works perfectly but once the game starts, no more sound! The game sound settings are on, no problem with the sound (new).

Plz

Hello,
I noticed that many people have problems with their HDMI, so I advise you to go to HDMI sound settings, press X, then set it to manual and check everything, validate, and start the game that presents the problem, and there you go.
