i think every HTiB accepts optical and can do DTS and DD5.1

for more advanced HDAudio, need to shop for more expensive and more updated HTiB

^sorry to say, but your PS3 cannot use ur current monitor. maybe trade in for a new monitor. i think Samsung Syncmaster 931bw or BenQ FP94VW is ~RM650

anyone up to be a guinea pig? got a new product that claims can convert PS3/Wii into VGA output.

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-zp-49-en-70-2jp6.html- price is RM115 at play-asia
http://www.mayflash.com/vgabox/vga004/vga004.htm


"The resolution of the output pictures is 480P/720P/1080I/1080P when used with the PS3 game console."
this product too good to be true? can't find any reviews or impressions from google yet.

HDFury is much more expensive though.

this mayflash VGA convertor/cable sounds good on the specs page. imagine BR output at VGA 1920*1080 with no HDCP fuss.

anyway this product still very new, kenot find a single review on the net

http://myhometheater.homestead.com/vgacable.html
"the adapter just "adapts" it doesn't convert"

http://www.cablewholesale.com/specs/10h1-50103.htm
"This cable will not display a picture if used to connect a computer to a TV or any device to a computer monitor."

wired or wifi connection?

"Here's a good guide and here
Try setting the MTU setting to 1364 on both the router and the PS3. A few have reported more stable connections at MTU 1364."

Will u be using the PS3 while staying in Vietnam? their ISP is also a DSL service similar to streamyx? most of us here just connect the ps3 to a router (wired/wifi) and using streamyx/jaring/maxis etc.

yes, a modem will also work. just follow the settings given by your ISP.

most of us use router cos can have more than 1 device online at the same time (pc+ps3+etc..)

"Grab your BT headset manual and DO WHAT THE HEADSET TELLS YOU TO DO to get it in "Sync Mode"

Go to your PS3 XMB - Accessories - Register BT device - BT Headset.

MAKE SURE YOUR HEADSET IS IN SYNC MODE. if you threw away the manual - google is your friend."
