ill try turning it off at the back an holdin the standy button at the front see what that does because surely if it on at the back and i hold the standy button for 5 secons it wont do anytin cos it will automatically start after 1 second. | |

it doesn't specify what turning it off means, you'll have to try both! | |

turns out you shouldn't need to do that, just read this on the PS3 site quote: http://uk.playstation.com/help-support/ps3/guides/detail/item48646/Connecting-to-your-TV/ | |

yeah, you'll need to plug it in via HDMI and change it to scart. just remember to have the HDMI and scart plugged in because when you click change to scart you have 30 seconds to go to the scart channel and confirm. if you don't confirm it won't change the settings :thumbs: | |
