Ps3 – My PS3’s picture is too big on an older TV

ps3technical-issues

I decided to set up my PS3 again, and then I go to turn it on. I get into a game and I noticed that the screen is too big for my TV.

I have an old TV so I don't know if that's what's causing it, but can this be solved?

Best Answer

It's possible you may need to reset the PS3's video settings:

  • Plug your PS3 into your TV
  • Turn it on and keep your finger on the power button.
  • It will beep when it turns on, and then beep once more whilst you're holding the PS3 (about 5 seconds after holding it).
  • On that second beep, release the power button.

This will make the PS3 re-set the video output source, and you will be prompted to set it up again for the current TV source. Follow the on-screen steps and the PS3 should auto-adjust to the screen margins
