My PS3 is set to 1080i, because i had it on the TV in the front room... That TV recently broke and wont switch on.

Anyway, i just moved my PS3 back to my room and it's still set to 1080i, the only problem is... My TV is 1080p.

I can't play anything. It's just a blue screen with my TV saying "Mode not supported". Is there a way for me to get it back to 1080p, or do i have to wait for the other TV to be fixed?

Oh, and the 1080i/p thing may be mixed up... I am not 100% sure which one of those my TV is on but it's on one of them, and my TV doesn't support it!

Help

I believe if you hold the power button for a really long time as you turn on the system it resets the output settings to the lowest possible.

Do a hard reset.....

Hold down the power button on the ps3 and it should adjust to the current tv's settings

cant you reset the settings via power button holding and set it to 1080p from your 5xx resolution with the Cable, that was in the PS3s box?

every 1080p screen supports 1080i, so the TV in your room probably is 1080i at most

hold the stand-by button when switching on for ~10secs (until it beeps again after the initial beep) to reset the video mode - after that it should work

Wait thats messed up....how can a 1080p t.v not be able to do 1080i?

When your PS3 is off, h down the power button to turn it on, but keep holding it til it makes a bunch of beeps and shuts back off. Then just turn it back on and the display setting of your PS3 should be back to default SD and working, so you can set it to 1080p when you're on ur XMB.

You have to hold the power button till it makes two noises in a row and afterwards one noise again. The screen should come back afterwards.

"Oh, and the 1080i/p thing may be mixed up... I am not 100% sure which one of those my TV is on but it's on one of them, and my TV doesn't support it"... I knew i had that messed up ¬_¬

Thanks everyone, anyway. I almost needed new pants. I'm in your debt!

@tor, lock?
