Author Topic: Sony playstation 3 on movie screen David Stone Film Handler Posts: 75 From: Hornsby, Sydney, Australia Registered: Jun 2008 posted 11-09-2012 12:55 AM                     Hi Everyone, I have Christie 2000ZX projector, Dolby CP750 processor and I want to project Sony Playstation 3 on the movie screen. I have picture but no sound. Tried getting sound by connecting from playstation to non sync imput ports on CP 750 to no avail. Any ideas, Cheers, David  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 11-09-2012 02:53 AM                     The 750 can process Dolby Digital AC3. You need to tell the PS3 that you have an HDMI cable but you want the audio through the optical output. Go to SETTINGS and change the relevant options in the audio menu. Make sure you enable the bitstream and not any of the HD audio streams that are not compatible neither the optical output nor the CP750 can handle. And tell the PS3 that you do not have a DTS decoder!  |  IP: Logged Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 11-09-2012 09:37 AM                        Or you can just buy a TOSLink cable.. that worked great. The Dolby CP750 has an input on the back for this, and the PS3 has an output..  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 11-09-2012 01:48 PM                     I thought it was what I said!  |  IP: Logged
