Hello

Having a bit of trouble with my PS3. I connect the PS3 with HDMI to the receiver (Sony 5200ES), go to sound settings and choose automatic, then I get this:
"A connection error with the HDMI device has occured
Check that the HDMI device is connected correctly and turned on"

Tried doing it manually too, but I end up with no sound at all.


It has worked perfectly connecting my PS3 to LCDs and other receiver, but it's not working with my new one. Its 2 days old.

However, I think this issue lies within the PS3


Any help would be gladly appreciated =]

I have the exact same problem. I have my PS3 hooked up on a Pioneer VSX-917V receiver using an HDMI cable. I've assigned the HDMI input onto the correct port on my receiver and set it to that mode. I have an SDTV, so the HDMI is only linked to the receiver. When I let the PS3 detect the HDMI device automatically, I get the same error message:

"A connection error with the HDMI device has occured
Check that the HDMI device is connected correctly and turned on"

And when I do it manually, even keeping all the tick boxes at a minimal, I get no sound at all.
