Go to PS3 settings > Power Saving > Set auto-shut off for your PS3

I am having a minor problem with my PS3 when playing games that support 1080p

The problem is the audio is jumpy... as in the music skips every 30 sec or so - graphics are smooth with no problems just the audio.

When running on 720p no problems at all.

Graphic and Audio currently set to HDMI with Auto settings.

What are the games you are having this issue with?

in the setting area, there was something about RBG thingy, and i set it to FULL.

what is that?
*
TV colors uses the standard RGB range of 16-235 (Limited).
Monitors however uses a range of 0-255 (Full).

Basically the settings is for monitors because games are made with the Limited RGB range in mind.
Colors may look washed out so setting it to Full should help with "better" colors and contrast.

Currently only tested with 2 demos - GTA5 & Echochrome*

XMB menu is currently set to 1080p as well and sometimes when scrolling the "click" sound does not sound.

Most probably HDMI cable fault.
I sugest you connect the AV cable and set the audio out to that.

See if the problem persist.

Try not to place your PS3 on the same level that you place your front speakers. The sounds generated from the speakers regardless low or high volume will cause some low or high vibration across the AV cabinet or table panel and this might have a negative damage impact on the BD mechanism lens and it parts (especially when the lens is in reading mode, the sensitivity is much greater to any shock or vibration)

am i positioning the ps3 wrongly? will my speaker affect my ps3 like the above quote from first page?

You're not placing your PS3 wrongly, but you're placing your speakers wrongly.
In a nutshell, nothing to worry about your PS3's placement.

Everything's good now. Just put your woofer on the floor.
You'll feel the difference.

any tips on how to protect the ps3 from dust?

Unfortunately, dust are like germs.
No such thing as dust-proof.

Open and clean.
Best way to clean, period.

If paranoid, best don't touch.
Because vacuuming from the outside or spraying compressed air from the outside doesn't do much, if anything.

When i got console back in Sept, start off with Ori-packaged Socom and Assasin Creed (1) - sold it off immediately.
Bought MGS4, GT5P, WE 09, KZ2... coz these are my fav.
then sold GT5P and WE 09, anticipating GT5 full.

mana tau GT5 tak mari mari....
now adays only play KZ2 most of the time. Nice game and i'm not bored yet....

U2- dunno why dun fancy it.
DA-O, yeah look nice but doubt have time for RPG....

so wait and wait... GOW3 should fit my genre. but again, dunno if would delay as well

No.
R1 and R3 MGS4 has the same region serial.

Thus, you can share the savefile between an R1 and R3 version of MGS4.
There are a couple of games that R1 and R3 having the same serial though.

But bear in mind, majority don't.

Ventilation is alright.
But you can bet dust is going to clog up there in no time.

So better clean that place regularly.
