Killmonk26 · 06-22-2008, 12:01 PM

i recently got a PS3 and i was trying to hook it up to my reciever, but im having some problems. (FYI i know how to hook things up pretty well b/c i work for circuit city). i have my stereo hook up to my reciever and it works b/c i have a xbox 360 working on it fine right now. but i have an optical cable running from the out on my ps3 to the only in on my reciever and im getting no sound on my stereo.

Isnt there a menu option to switch between audio outputs? Also, what is your reciever? there have been some compatibilty issues between the PS3 and 7.1 surround systems.

maybe too late but you have to tell the PS3 to output to the optical port. Do that in the menus.
