Make sure that you go to the Video Settings submenu in the Main settings menu (PS3) and configure the BD,DVD settings for optical.

I hooked it up to the TV. Works OK but no sound in the rear speakers (surround) for regular TV or the online stuff. I wonder if the online stuff would be better (surround, etc.) if plugged into the Blu Ray player. The other annoying thing is I have to use three remotes and have to keep switch the blu Ray to "D in 1" to get any sound from TV/internet.

Yes i tried both ways....i first burned it as a data disc and i also tried creating AVCHD DVD....in both cases i saw that PS3 audio is choppy in 1080p mode.....1080i doesnt seem to have any issues. The video camera itself plays the 1080p with no issues when connected directly to my HDTV....is this an issue with my PS3 ? has anyone tried this ?

Channels? It sounds like problem is in the source, tv, cable tv, Blu-Ray. Try using optical input, if is posible.

That does sound like an issue. How do you have this thing hooked up. Hdmi? Also, there are some features about level control. I will let you know that it does NOT sound normal. I listen to my dish network anwhere between level 35 to 45. My Hd dvd player, and Ps3 Blu ray player usually sound powerful at level 45-60. If my system was at 70, the roof would be blown off my house most likely. Check your speaker connections. Are all connections secure? I need more information. ***Actually second thought, if you are NOT set up by HDMI or Optical cable. And you are using RCA red and white audio cables. Maybe that is normal.. But it does does not sound right.

Sweet, I did that as well as some other adjustments on my blu-ray input. I will set mine back to standard & see if it helps. Any suggestion on settings i should use Nick?

Ya im really worried that the feed from my blu-ray player is causing the issue because when i have the player off & its running through the receiver the background is dark black with denon displayed on screen like it should be, then when i turn on the bluray palyer im back to the side lighting isssue. I have a ps3 so i will try it but that means I lose all my hd sound due to the limitations of the ps3. :(

what I ended up doing was using a hdmi cable for audio. I have a hdmi cable going from the projector into the receiver. Then a hdmi cable from the receiver to the ps3. I turn the projector screen on by using the receiver remote and a display box for the reiciever comes up on the projector screen to make adjustments. I hear that optical cables work just as good.

Does this mean that the speakers on teh TV will still be able to play audio?And that the audio from the DVD needs to get to the Onkyo via optical?So you can use the TV for center speaker, and the rest of the speakers for the soundstage? Sounds good! And also allows the system to remain simple to use (for the wife) without the Onkyo, but can easily become a ciname system at the press of a power button? Wow!

I had the exact same problem with this tv. I eventually just muted the TV speakers and ran the sound exclusively through some external speakers that I have. That solved my problem.

The speakers have to plug into the DVD box it comes with. If you want to have your PS3 play sound through the speakers, you have 2 options, (unless you have a TV with arc HDMI. I did not have this.) Your first option, use an optical audio cable to direct the sound from te TV to the DVD box. Your second option, use A/V cables to play sound from the PS3 or TV to the DVD box. If you don't have those cables, you can find them for pretty cheap in various places. I used A/v for my Xbox until I bought an optical audio cable. They both work well, but you'll get better results with the optical audio cable. Bare in mind, you'll have to have the DVD box on in order for the sound to come through. Hope this helps!

I had the same issue. One possibility (as in what I found) was that your PS3 is set to audio through a HDMI cable. You have to go into the manual settings in the PS3 and change it to the optical cable setting for audio. The PS3 will lead you through the setting changes.. Hope that helps.

I have a problem with this Blu-Ray player, too... but my problem is different. The system sound is fine, and it plays regular DVDs just fine... but if we try to play a Blu-Ray, the play keeps getting interrupted and/or randomly skipping forward or backward by itself. We even took the batteries out of our remote control thinking maybe that was the problem, but the system still randomly stopped/skipped around in playing the Blu-Ray. Any ideas?

I will try this when I get home (I'm almost 100% positive that it will work :-)). I'm seeing the same problem in my blueray home theatre system. Thanks for sharing the resolution.

same here low volume, but it works, have you turn your volume up in settings on your playstation? just a thought

That's because your optical cable is running from the receiver to the television, not to the PS3. Anything playing on your television will play through all your surround speakers. You would have to run the optical cable directly from the receiver to the PS3 to get the sound strictly from the PS3.My setup is the same as yours.
