Need help with tv and ps3 hook up to work with 1080i

Question

I have a ps3 and a hdtv able to do 1080i. Thru a hdmi cable i can do a 480i perfect to fit on screen. So, i try a 1090i game like Rainbow Six and GTA4 but the screen is too big for the tv. i tried the format button on the controller of the tv but they just work on normal channels (ex: 1, 2, 3, 4) I looked on the ps3 but all there is is to change the hd settings ( just like if you want 1080i or not) and upscaler for ps/ps2 games but not for ps3. Anyone know something i could try?

Answer 1

ok , although you installed the cable, you didnt tell youre ps3 that you have it installed. it wont know if u use a component cables, go to display setting and then then something like tv output, then component, then it will ask you what the maximum resolution ur tv can handle.
