I have a ps3 question?

Question

why does it flicker and goes to a blue screen alot when im watching a movie or playing games

Answer 1

To be honest it sounds like a wiring problem.  Check to make sure that all your wires are plugged in appropriately and securely. If that doesn't fix it, see if you can replace the cable used to transmit your video signal to the TV, it's possible that the cord may have gone bad.  

In the event that neither of those worked you are down to hardware issues.  Try and hook something else up to the TV using the same signal inputs that the PS3 is using right now and see if the problem persists. If it the problem is still there your culprit it's the TV, if it's not still there then the PS3 is probably to blame and it's time to see if your warranty is still good.

Answer 2

possible cause:

your HDTV is not receiving a fast enough picture signal and it goes to the default "no picture" screen (the blue screen). it happens a lot when you use slow AV cables (composite, component) connected to the HD tv.

when I got fast HDMI cables, my blue screen appeared less. now my HDTV only does it when I'm ejecting discs and returning to the ps3 main menu screen.

Answer 3

its changing the settings if u have a h.d tv and put a normal dvd in (not a blueray) its auto changing the settings because a normal dvd cannot play on hd, so it goes on standard setting

as for the games look on the back of the case some run on max 720p and some 1080p so if u put 1 in that is 720p the main screen is 1080 so it changes the setting for the game

dont worry bout it mine does it have a look next time it comes up with a different setting when it comes bak on
