(normal leads will do... don't have to be specifically bought as "component" cable) Then run the PS3 into the HDMI. i was goin try that, but the coponent lead from ps3 to tv, is different that from virgin box to tv. ps3 to tv is like a block connector, then 5 wires, whereas the virign box is 5 component out I know that.. I'm running my ps3 over component. I meant try some standard RCA cables from the virgin box to the telly (3x singles of course, plus the pair for sound.)

	quote: Originally posted by stubs Is the resolution set correctly on the PS3 to what the TV can handle? yeah i used to use ps3 through hdmi, and it never made tv go off at all, im thinkin maybe the component connection in tv may be dodgy, as if i unplug component plug from ps3, and plug it back in, it comes straight back, where as when it goes off on its own, it takes a few seconds get picture back up. would having a hdmi splitter be best? so that i have ps3 and virgin box going to hdmi splitter box, then box to tv? like this thing below...... http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5347627/Trail/searchtext%3EHDMI+SWITCH.htm

	You can get HDMI switches BTW.. I actually saw one in Asda for £15 made by Philips (manual button press one). However, I think they're much gay... try and sort the component issue... much better way of doing it.

	i have my ps3 connected upto tv via component cables cuz i dont have 2 hdmi connections, i currently have ps3 connected via component cables but every 5 mins or so the tv goes blank when ps3 on, and comes back about 5 seconds later, but never does it with virgin media connected by hdmi. can i get a hdmi switch thing, or anyone know what may be wrong?
