I got myself a 40gig PS3 and I use a Samsung 32 inch LCD. I can't seem to get any picture if I link the PS3 to the TV via HDMI.

I've rung Samsung on the matter and been promised a call back from them but I've had nothing as yet. I'd be grateful for any help.

My PS3 works fine on Samsung 50" panel via HDMI - I think you have to switch to HDMI on the PS3's menu, but other than that it should be fine - just check the tv can handle the mode/resolution the playstation is outputting

When I switch to HDMI, I just get a blank screen.

Anyone help?

Is the cable in okay?

Check the TV menus there are an awful lot on my Samsung, you may not have it set properly.

check the cable, (swap ends), change the cable, try another HDMI socket if you have one on the TV.

The PS3 should automatically detect the TV connected vi HDMI, no settings required on the TV.

I have a 40" Samsung.

Thanks all for your help.

I trouble shot everything and it turned out it was a dodgey cable.

The minute I changed it, the PS3 set itself up for the best picture. Simply put, HD is wow!

AMEN! I got a samsung 32" HDTV (only has 1080i on HD) but makes PS3 games looks absolutely amazing! (F1 and even PES2008 shocker)!
