I have had the JPN PS3 for a while, mainly playing JPN/US games, but yesterday borrowed a BD title for the first time. I have a question on both video & audio. I thought it may be a setup issue on the PS3 so started looking thru the sticky too (and still reading as lot of posts
).
- PS3 video is connected to my HDTV directly via components.
- HDTV is of an earlier gen Mitsubishi (55819) that accepts natively 480i/480p/1080i (can't accept native 720p but will upconvert(?) to 1080i). Component is the best available input on this HDTV; no DVI, HDMI or any other inputs that came after component.
- PS3 audio is connected to an Marantz receiver (SR7000) via optical & the recevier decodes DD5.1 and DTS.
- The BD's sleeve says 1080p, TrueHD, DD5.1.
While playing back the BD, the Mits was registering only a 480i feed; receiver was only seeing stereo. Shouldn't I be able to see 1080i and hear DD5.1? Does it seem like a setup issue?
Thank you,
Tak
