just bought a new hd ready tv so can watch blu ray's on my ps3 (using hdmi port from ps3 to tv) and i have a surround sound system which worked on my old tv but cant get any sound out of it on my new tv. would anyone have any advice on how i can fix this issue. tv and surround sound have the usual input/output minus optical input.

have sky+ connected to surround and it works.

PS3 has HDMI, OPTICAL and AV

Surround is Wharfedale DVD 5.1 but use it as surround sound on sky+ as well as DVD player

can get sound through sky+ but try connecting to tv but no sound coming out.

To convert this player to Multi-Region: Open drawer | Press: 8, 1, 3, 2 and 8 | Display shows: Region Code 2 | Press Enter key 5 times until code is changed to 9 | Press Play (or Setup to save & quit) | Player is now multi region


ok will have a look to see how we can help

think it will need to be scart to phono out lead you need if PS3 allows that with HDMI connected

so scart on PS 3 to phono in on your dvd player

think when your telly connected with HDMI from PS3 it wont allow scart out, and only some tellys allow AV switching.....e.g AV 2 in to AV 1 out

thats the problem you face and a dedicated AV amp may help you like this at £250
