How I hook up my reciever to my PS3

[I. Cold]

I got the HDMI cable going straight from the ps3 to the tv. Anyone know how I can get sound through my speakers with my ps3?

Either using a digital audio output, if your receiver accepts that, or you can use the composite hookups that came with your ps3 and just plug the red and white into the receiver. Make sure you go into the audio settings and select which ever one you choose.

go with the digital there is virtually no distortion.

There are a few ways, depending on the hardware you have. Please be more specific.

My receiver is kinds old. Probably built in 99. I dont think it has digital outputs.

I thought about using the composite hookups to connect to the receiver but figured the ps3 would either send information through one port (hdmi) or the other.. not both.

You could hook the tv itself to the reciever. That's how I have mine set up. My reciever doesn't have many inputs on it, so I use the dvd input for it.

 

[Mr. Manolo]

Either your Tv has to have audio outputs or you have to go straight from the PS3. If your reciever doesn't have digital then your gonna have to use the red and white rca outputs. It's not rocket science. haha.

No, it will send the video through the hdmi, and the audio through the composite (red, white leave the yellow unplugged) then go to your audio settings and change the audio to composite.
