So i was messing with the display resolution, it was working fine before i started messing with it... i changed the resolution from 1080i with component cables... to 1080p. I lost the picture unti i plugged in my HDMI cable and it works just fine... however i want it back to my comoponent cables and i cant get it goin.... any ideas?

Have you tried changing the video output settings on the PS3? It may just be on a setting that the TV does not support. For instance, if the poutput setting is 1080P, and the TV only supports up to 1080i, you would get a "not supported" signal. Hook the ps3 to a tv that it works on...turn it on, go to settings- display settings-output settings- select HDMI as the connector type- if it asks for 3D tv size...select the size- now you need to set the resolution...select all resolutions that the TV supports, since it is a dynex...it is likely a 720p TV. So I would start by selecting only 720p, and then hook the system to the Dynex TV and see if it works now. If it works, you can go back in and attempt to select 1080i or 1080p to see if they work... but again, being a Dynex, it is probably only a 720p TV... The PS3 is likely trying to output a 1080i or 1080p signal...which that TV doesn't support.

The resolution is controlled by the video sources, you do not adjust it at the TV, if you feed it with video sources that is 1080i it will display 1080i.
I hope that will explain how it works.

The TV resolution is controlled by your VIDEO sources, if you feed nit with 720P it will display 720p, 1080i in 1080i dipslay if it capable of 1080i. It is not set at the TV, just like the resolution setting of the monoitor which is doen on the PC not at the monitor.

use just the red green and blue wires for the picture and NOT the yellow wire. That is why it is messed up.

XBOX games only play in 720, but it will still look great.

You cannot set the resolution at the TV, the video signals set the resolution, if the TV is fed with 720i/p, it will display 720i/p,
1080i in = 1080i display (if it can support it), it works the same as your PC, you set the resolution at PC not at the monitor.

Try changing the settings on the Xbox under display to 1080i. If it is 1080 p, or 720p, the image will look funny so make sure it is at 1080i.

Your welcome

Your friend from down the lane!

For the record I have a playstation 3 running to tx100 through hdmi to dvi adapter. It does all resolution no probs, including 720p,1080i and 1080p (which tx100 does do smoothly through dvi). My denon upscaling dvd player works fine too. In fact the tx100 looks totally awsome with PS3 games and Blu-ray.

Maybe your dvi lead is the wrong type (i think there are 2 types) or perhaps you could test with a differrent piece of DVI kit in case it's your pioneer causing probs? Hope this helps.
