I have a Beovision 7-32 which is one of the older models with only a DVI port at the back.

I have had it upgraded with the HD module and currently watch Sky HD through the DVI port with a SCART connection for the sound.

I'm looking at getting a Playstation 3 in the new year and wondered if any more knowledgable forum users could help me with my connection options to take advantage of HD gaming resolutions? Obviously the Sky box is using the DVI port, but can I get the highest gaming resolutions of the PS3 by connecting it via the YPbPr connections, or is there another way?

Thanks.

 

From experience I found the best way of connecting the PS3 to BV7 was using HDMI/ DVI adaptor for video and optical digital (via convertor) for audio.

Clearly you only have one DVI on the TV so I would assume some sort of switcher would work to move between the two HDMI sources.

My PS3 is accessed through PC on the Beo4/ Beo5. I only have normal Sky + but assume that Sky HD is accessed via DTV on the remote.

The Sky box can be connected through the YPbPr sockets and the image is still great on the 32", this will free up your DVI socket for the Playstation 3.

Or have a look at the newly announce HDMI expander for the BV7-32.

Thanks for your help everyone. Would the Sky Box connected via YPbPr give high definition images though?

I did notice the post on the HDMI expander and await pricing information with interest!

Yes, it will.
