I have a Sony TV with only 1 HDMI port that's being used by my satellite box. Can I connect a PS3 thru this converter to the YPbPr on the TV?

I would recommend and hdmi splitter that takes up one port but turns it Into three or more ports depending on the model I buyhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008GVOVK0?cache=be13262daff0ab11004eb6b6ddd39105π=SY200_QL40&qid;=1405223702&sr;=8-1#

I purchased this unit and just didn't work on any of the 5 TV's I have throughout the house. I used various sources as the HDMI input as well. Immediately returned it. Not sure if the unit was defective or incompatible.

If have HDMI coming out of your computer, I don't think this is what you want. This box takes Component Video (YPbPr) and Digital Audio (SPDIF) and converts it to an HDMI signal.

PT, I wanted to convert a new HDMI Blu-Ray Player down to an old Component (YPbPr) television; this device would not do it. This unit converts old Component (YPbPr) video (or old computer VGA video) up to a new HDMI (or Coax) television or monitor. There is no Coax input (see closeups of the product) so I don't think this is a good product to go from Coax up to HDMI. The ramp up should be from Component to HDMI.

Yes you can. I've connected my laptop and PS3 directly to my HDTV using these cables.

HDMI, component video or composite video cable...any one of these will work for output to the PS3. HDMI would be the easiest if you have a newer PS3 model. Good luck.

Yes; this will convert your PS3's component video output (cable with Red, Green & Blue jacks) to HDMI. Per the information available, you can get 1080p resolution from the component video cable.Note you can only get 2-channel stereo through this device. My recommendation for the audio is to use the optical audio output port, although you can only get 5.1 audio through the PS3's optical audio output port. If you must have 7.1 audio output for your home theater, that can only be achieved through the PS3's HDMI port.

yes. you need to buy "HDMI Multi-Channel PCM 5.1 7.1 Surround Audio Decoder" so you can use it for ps3 if you buy check eBay for it

Here's the setup that I use...You would need two HDMI cables to connect both your DirecTV receiver and PS3 to the TV. You would then need an optical audio cable to connect that from the TV to your Home Theater receiver. You would then have to go into your TV settings and have the audio output setup correspondingly. This scenario will not always work as not all TVs support this function.

This does not have any HDMI inputs, only one HDMI output to go to your TV. So long as you have an HDMI input on your TV you can connect the PS3 with an optical cable to this and get Dolby Digital surround, but no TrueHD or DTS, only the built-in Blu-Ray player can use those formats.

That's exactly what I tried (except I think you meant HDMI output, not input). It didn't work at all for this particular converter. I'm going to try a more expensive converter that looks identical and supposedly does the same thing, but I haven't ordered it yet.

You can connect your sound bar to your p3 of 4...it connects via digital optical cable...but it's better to connect your ps3 to your TV via hdmi and your sound bar to you tv as well via the optical cable

Your playing device must be able to convert 5.1 to a PCM digital output.This thing only converts PCM digital to R/L analog outputs.On the other hand, if you have an old ANALOG tv with YbPbP inputs, it will not send an analogue signal as advertised.

This will not work for letting you display the PS3 output on your laptop. Laptop HDMI ports are only video OUT ports, modern laptops don't have any video IN ports, so you will not be able to view any content on your laptop's screen from a device other than your laptop.

Related answer from a reviewer "on PS3 the only outputs that are 5.1 are HDMI and Optical, which neither are supported on this product. The *best* you'll be able to do is 2.1 with the MultiAV out."

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