ps3 switch from hdmi to scart Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,
I play at home using a SCART connection.
I played at a friend's place on his plasma using HDMI, and now back at home, connected via SCART, there's no image. I can't access the console menus, what should I do?

Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

When starting the console, press and hold the tactile POWER button continuously for 5 seconds until you hear a second beep, and like magic, it works, and it's in 576p resolution.

Thank you very much. What drives me crazy is that either I'm reading the instructions very poorly, or we have to go through the internet to solve our problems. Thanks again.

Thank you, dude.

schumacherferrari · Answer

For those who are still tearing their hair out because they don't hear the second beep, let me clarify the process:

PlayStation on standby (red light), press and hold your finger on the power button. There are therefore 2 beeps, the first is the one for turning on, the second restores the resolution of the PS3.

You should not press on once but only once. That might be where the issue lies for those who still can't get it to work.

clement · Answer

Hey, papysnake30,
I thank God for your answer, my friend! I borrowed my brother-in-law's PS3, I played it in HD at my place, and when I returned it, it didn't work for him when connected via the SCART cable!!! He thought I broke it!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Thanks, man, I freaked out and thanks to you it's all good.

Hello everyone,  I have a big problem because even with this solution of holding down the 1/0 until the second beep. First, I want to clarify that I understood the process (when turning on the console with 1/0, hold down until the second beep). But it doesn't work! I've tried tons of times! I'm starting to wonder if moving it has somehow damaged it, but that's unlikely as it was well protected and didn't get any impact...  Anyway, I'm about to go crazy with this PS3!  One small detail, I switched it from HDMI (and in France) to connect it with SCART in England. I'm wondering if there might be a difference regarding the electricity? I don’t think so since the console turns on, it’s just that I have no image...  THANK YOU, I really need help, I'm losing it!

elmarino · Answer

You need to go back to your friend's house and set up the PS3. You go to Settings, then Display Settings, and you do what's necessary according to the cable you're using.

antioxyde · Answer

When starting the console, you need to press and hold the POWER touch button for 5 seconds until you hear a second beep, and that will work; the default resolution is 576p.

If that doesn't work, check the quality of your cable. You can find very good ones on sites like ldlc.com or http://www.cable-hdmi.eu.

I haven't had any issues with the one purchased from cable-hdmi.eu on my PlayStation 3.

celsoman · Answer

Restez appuyé sur le bouton de démarrer jusqu'à entendre un bip, et là un menu s'affiche pour vous dire si vous voulez la mettre en HD ou péritel. Voilà, salut.

tirami · Answer

Thank you very much. Simple and effective.

alexandre57240 · Answer

I have the same problem, but you need to buy an HDMI cable to play, and it works.

maxdu60 · Answer

That does the same for me, I don't know how to do it, it's getting on my nerves --'

jtrj · Answer

No, it is not necessary; we have to when we connect the HDMI, they ask if we want to set the PS3 to HDMI, so the PS3 is configured in HDMI. It needs to be configured in SCART by connecting both the HDMI and SCART.

jtrj · Answer

ensuite faire les réglages mais je ne me rappelle plus comment

Switching from PERITEL to HDMI is mind-blowing, quality 5X better, smooth details and much less pixelated, clearer and sharper.

rodail · Answer

< p>It's a bit complicated, but I'll try to help you. It seems that your PlayStation is outputting the video in HDMI but not sending the audio to your TV through the SCART connection. Here are a few steps you can take:< /p> < ul> < li>Check the audio output settings on your PlayStation. Go to Settings > Sound and Screen > Audio Output Settings, and make sure it's set to HDMI. < li>Ensure that your TV is set to the correct audio output when you're using the HDMI connection. < li>If you're using both HDMI and SCART at the same time, there might be a conflict. Try disconnecting the SCART cable while using HDMI. < li>Restart your PlayStation and TV after making any changes. < /ul> < p>If you've done all this and still have no sound, it might be worth testing your PlayStation with another HDMI device to see if the issue persists.< /p>

Fiinaal · Answer

Simply: Hold down the 'On' button on your PS3 while turning it on to switch from HDMI to SCART and vice versa.

Otherwise, it's because the image resolution is left on HDMI.

wawa35 · Answer

I can't do it, I took a PS2 SCART cable, I plugged it in, I put it on "Scart 2" and I keep pressing the button on the controller for a long time but I only get the first beep, not the second one. Help me, I'm fed up!
