I tried this before, it doesnt work, optical out is straight to the amp with op out..

so wat shld i do? now no audio for my ps3....

The ps3 should have the regular red,white and yellow rca cables right?
You can just use the red and white for sound. If you need to use a 3 pole mini jack, there are sound cables that have RCA connectors with a mini jack at the other end. You won't get surround sound but at least there's sound output.

PM me your email, I think a supplier has sent me a converter spec before that can solve this problem.

yup. but im using my monitor to my ps3, so no speaker at all. in between that u have blueray game n video but running in to normal audio that is no point oso. since ps3 can support surround sound and i oso got speaker that can play surround, the best way is have to use surround sound effect right?

bro..we wanna help..but your picture incomplete...try posting the rest of the pics. again

thx, all i know every1 try to help me.... thx all......

Creative used to sell external sound cards (Extigy,DDTS-100) that can decode surround sound from digital inputs like coaxial or optical cable without a pc. Unfortunately those were phased out with no replacement models.

Are there any internal sound card that can do digital input from a coaxial or optical source and can decode the surround sound signal? If there is, you could use your pc to do the surround sound decoding. Downside is that the pc has to be on to do so.

The only other option left would be to get an AV receiver.

but now i wanna use the speaker to my speaker... not for pc.... the ptoblem is the interface tht support between this 2 is diffrence.....

Without any surround decoder, there's no way to get surround sound out from the optical input. Hardware/software is required to convert the incoming digital signals to analog signals for the front,rear and center speakers.

that y im here to ask about how to convert the audio signal to digital optical cable to minijack cable, and 1 thing to tell the ps3 have support dts surround decode.

I don't think your current setup is possible to use your speakers to your PS3

than sony say ps3 can support 5.1 audio is tipu 1 la... only can use when u buy sony audio system lo....

Simple answer is you can't get surround sound from the ps3 with your current setup. You need an additional piece hardware to decode the digital signal to get the surround sound. There's no simple adapter that can do this for you.

The ps3 is just there to provide the surround signal, not decode it for you.

ya that is wat i wan to know.... if got any hardware convert the signal..... i believe that i have clearly mention about that....

The answer that you want is already in my previous post. Get an external sound card that can decode surround without a pc or get a internal soundcard that can accept and decode surround sound.

If you can't get either of the these, go buy a home theater system with surround sound capabilities.

so u mean i have to installl the extra sound card for my ps3???? i will do thatis ps3 is allow to do that....
