I bought the vsx-1019 yesterday and am having trouble with playing the video from my PS3. I have my cable hooked up via hdmi to the 1019 and then the 1019 to the tv via hdmi. The cable audio and video are working fine and the sound is coming through the hdmi from the ps3 but no video. Any suggestions?

Are you getting no picture or just when you play certain media?

Equipment list - LG 37LC2D, PS3, Comcast cable box, pioneerVSX-1019. All connected via HDMI.

I am thinking the problem is either in the PS3 or the LG. I have tried connecting directly from the PS3 to the LG and I am getting the same issue, audio is fine but no Video period. It seems like it is "trying" to display because I don't get the "no input" that flashes across the screen when there is no video source. I tried switching out HDMI cables but i still get the same problem.

I have no problem using the HDMI from the cable box (audio and video are both there) to the TV so I feel like this is a PS3 problem (Up until today I was using component cables from the PS3 and had no problem).

do a video reset..

that has happened to me previously where the video is output at 480i and doesn't show up on the screen.. doing a reset (hold the power button until it beeps twice) fixed it for me.

I tried that and it didnt work. What did work was hooking it up to my other flatscreen, which the PS3 recognized, and running a software update which then prompted the ps3 to ask me if I had hdmi now connected.

I posted this problem in the Pioneer VSX-1019 master thread yesterday - similar to this thread so I'm reposting it here. PS3 software level 2.60

PS3 HDMI not working with VSX-1019
I just purchased both the VSX-1019 and a new PS3 in the last two weeks. Both the PS3 and the 1019 work great individually - just not together using HDMI. I can't get the 1019 to accept either audio or video from the PS3 and direct the video to a Samsung LCD HDTV (two years old) - all using HDMI. No video - no sound - anywhere. I've tried all the 1019 HDMI input ports with the same result.

Troubleshooting steps so far:
The PS3 plays perfectly connected via HDMI directly to the Samsung HDTV. Full 1080p resolution with no sound issues. So it would appear that the PS3 HDMI port and the Samsung HDMI input ports are working and both are playing together just fine.

The VSX-1019 displays its OSD menu properly on the Samsung - so the 1019 HDMI out appears to be OK.

I've tested all of the 1019's 4 HDMI inputs (including the BD input) using my DirecTV DVR HDMI out. All work properly and the 1019 routes the video via HDMI out to the Samsung HDTV, so the 1019 HDMI input ports all check out.

The PS3 was set to output full 1080p resolution with LPCM audio and HDMI selected for output of both audio and video. I experimented by trying different output resolutions on the PS3, and one thread suggested turning off 1080p/24 frame rate -didn't work.

KuroLink is turned off on the 1019.

Temporarily, I've connected the PS3 HDMI out directly into a third HDTV port (bypassing the 1019) and have routed PS3 audio directly to the 1019 via digital optical cable, but the PS3 only outputs 5.1 audio via the dig out, rather than the 7.1 I would get via HDMI LPCM. Not a big loss, and I can live with the results, but I would be grateful if anyone can point out what I'm doing wrong. Others on this thread seem have no problems with the PS3/VSX-1019 and HDMI. Thanks.

UPDATE:
As suggested in other posts, it appears that the HDMI handshake is affected by power on sequence. Powering up the VSX-1019 before the PS3 seems to have resolved the problem. Will have to see if that consistently works.

hey casear, I saw your post and I'm about to get the 1019, I also have the PS3 and wonder how you make out w/ the problem you had. Does it really work if you turn on the 1019 first before ps3? If so, is it all connected just through the HDMI? Because you mentioned you routed the audio via 1019 and PS3 HDMI directly to TV. Please let me know, really want to get the 1019.

I am also about to purchase this Pioneer receiver but would like to verify that the PS3 works through HDMI input passthrough to TV. Also - I am wondering if games that are encoded 720i or 480i (ps2 games) will be upconverted to 1080p through the receiver? Thanks in advance. Chris

I 've got the same problem except the Video Out is completely dead, and the HDMI in on my LCD is locked down too. I can do my MACC setup and it shows on screen but everything other input has no signal.
