You probably can, but why not get Sony's "PS3 Component AV Cable"? It's $16.28. http://www.amazon.com/PS3-Component-AV-Cable-Playstation-3/dp/B000MIXFWA

My "older" plasma TV doesn't have any HDMI input but it does have RGB (red, green, blue) component input. This device converts HDMI output from the source (digital receiver/DVD player, etc.) to RGB component output. I still have to use my existing RGB cable to feed the signal into the plasma TV. And, yes, you do have to use a separate cable for the audio part and in my case, it was an optical cable.

I connected a new blue-ray player to and old TV that only had component conections and it worked fine. Beware sound requires a separate cable

I would think so. Doesn't the PS3 run through HDMI? If so you shouldn't have an issue.

I doubt it. The HD-SDI is an input and the hdmi is the output. I used this to take the signal from my sony fs700 camera to play on a cheap monitor for clients.

That will work fine for what you are doing. We use ours for our roku and ps3 into one hdmi slot.

most certainly. the converter works excellently in converting hdmi output to high quality composite audio and video. I bought this to use hdmi output from a PlayStation 3 on a tv with only one hdmi input (which was in use by my sat tv box). So had to convert the PS3 hdmi output for use on the tv composite input connectors. Works great. Jackie Pendleton

I'm not very familiar with ps3. If it's game equipment, this unit has TV and HMI connections. Hope this helps.

Hello thanks for contacting me. Yes you can use the port through the HDMI connection to connect your old gaming system. Also to get any more answers you might have about Denon SVR-590 you can call 201.762.6665. Thank you.

If your television has the three component video inputs (it should) the HDMI signal will be converted to a component signal you can connect to your set.

Just wanted to point out since other people referred to an HDMI cable. You cannot use an HDMI cable to capture from the PS3 because of HDCP. You will need to use the A/V breakout cable or something that will strip the HDCP.

I second this question. I dont plan on getting a PS3 (i own a 360 :-), but I too have heard problems with it not working with HDMI on other things like Direct Tv's box and stuff. Any help would be great!

The HDMI port is for HDMI out only. Thus it would not do what you are asking. You need a device that will convert HDMI to a signal that your TV can understand.

To directly answer your question: yes, the HDMI ports are good for PS3 and PS4 and yes, you can use them to add surround sound with audio devices.But I guess what you really want answered is how to connect the audio from your PS3/PS4 to the device while the PS3/PS4 is hooked up to the TV. The answer to that question is simply to connect your TV and PS3/PS4 with an HDMI cable. Then you connect the sound bar to your TV's audio HDMI port with another HDMI cable. Then your PS3/PS4 will play video on the TV and play audio through the sound bar. This is how my systems are set up. You can also set it up where your PS3/PS4 turning on turns your TV and the sound bar on automatically.

Just use the RCA cables that came with the ps3, and set the audio feature under "settings" to RCA. Your ps3 will still display with hdmi cable and then output audio with RCA. Also if you're using RCA to output audio, be sure to buy one of these with this specific speaker system Logitech 5.1 Game Console Adapter Convert Rca Plugs To A Single 1/8 (Discontinued by Manufacturer)This adapter will give your ps3 5.1 channel surround sound without having to use the lame matrix mode.

I would contact Panasonic for HDMI or just search/google for specs. In order to play movies and cds, I had to buy some kind of 2-into-1 adapter. I don't think is was expensive. HH Gregg or other elec. store should carry it and understand your need.

U can connect cable box and ps3 to hdmi ports on tv. Then hdmi arc from tv to soundbar. The soundbar switches automatically between the 2 devices.

if you use the basic rca cables that came with the ps3 and plug it into the reciever with an hdmi cable connecting the tv and reciever it might work.
