Need to hook up PS3 to HDTV. TV does not have HDMI hookup, but I have High Def DirecTV. Can I have PS3 in HD?
Can I use a component video cable and some kind of adapter through my digital video output from my PS3? The TV comes in High Definition, but only up to 1080i. There is a DVI slot in the back of my TV that isn’t being used and also a HDMI output on my DirecTV HD-DVR receiver.
Is it even possible to hook up my PS3 in High Def? I can’t use the HDMI cable, because I have no HDMI inputs on the TV or DirecTV receiver, only an output on the receiver.
Yes the PS3 is in high-definition. And if you have an HDTV, you’d want to get the best quality out of your PS3. Since you don’t have an HDMI port, I suggest you buy some component cables for the PS3. The PS3 does work with them and I’m sure your t.v. will take them too. Check these cables out:

They will have as clear quality as HDMI.
