Hi,

I did not play PS3 for past a few days. Today, once I want to play, I found that the resolution of my ps3 is not as usual. A bit big (low resolution). I chek in display setting, it already checked for everything. I also already reset the resolution by pressing on power button for a few second, still same issue.

I also found that something bintik bintik on my screen. Previously, I am not sure it was there or not because i just got my ps3 and play less than 6 hours.

for your information, I am using Samsung 21.5" monitor. Thank you.

Have you check your Display Settings whether it is set to 480p or 720p?

yup i did. Inside it, there is 4 options - 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p. I checked for all of them but I believe, my PS3 shows 720i instead of 1080p even the status there showing 1080p. I see the icon on the cross menu is bigger if compared to last time i play. sad.gif ..

Your monitor can support 1080p?  hmm.gif Try un-check 480p, 720p and 1080i; check 1080p only and see what happen. You are using HDMI-DVI connection?
*
i think it supports 1080p .. the max is 1900 x 1600++ .. not sure the exact value .. yes .. i am using hdmi-dvi connector ..

ok. first of all the external HDD/pendrive needs to be in FAT32 format otherwise the ps3 doesnt recognise the drive.

then you can just dump all the files on the drive. it will be easier if you create folders on the drive such as:

MUSIC
VIDEOS
PHOTOS

i think those are the file names... but if the vids or what not doesnt come up automatically, press triangle on the USB Drive from the XMB and click display all. and it should show up there.

Thanks dude. I got it. smile.gif.
