Due to the large amount of power that both a PS3 and a projector will draw when on, you may want to plug the two into a surge protector or power strip for safety. Connect one end of a standard HDMI cable into the output that is clearly labeled "HDMI OUT" on your Sony PlayStation 3.
Steps
- Press and hold the Power button on the PS3. If your PS3 is frozen, you can perform a manual reset.
- Hold the Power button for about 30 seconds. You'll hear three rapid beeps and your PS3 will turn itself off.
- Wait a few seconds, then press the Power button to turn it back on.
- Allow the system to check for errors.
Press the “X” button to select the icon. Press your joystick to the right to boost the volume. You will be see the volume slider go forward on the menu as the volume is adjusting. Press your joystick to the left to decrease the volume.

Input lag usually varies based on the way any given projector is configured. A projector might have a Game mode that produces 25 ms lag, a Cinema mode that is 50 ms, and a Cinema mode with Frame Interpolation that is 100 ms. For 4K enabled projectors, the Input Lag for a 4K signal is different than a 1080P signal.
Yes, but not directly. You already know about the HDMI-to-VGA converter. In addition, you'll need an HDMI switch between the adapter and the PS4, since PS4s expect to perform the HDMI handshake sequence with a display device that fully supports the HDMI standard.
Getting Started
- Turn on the system and select the appropriate button for laptop.
- Connect the VGA or HDMI cable to your laptop's VGA or HDMI port. If you are using a HDMI or VGA adapter, plug the adapter into your laptop and connect the provided cable to the other end of the adapter.
- Turn on your laptop.
HDMI. The HDMI connection is currently the most common connection. Nearly all modern televisions and projectors feature HDMI ports. HDMI is has become the standard for all electronic equipment for its high-quality signal and ability to carry both audio and video signals.
Projectors aren't just good for business presentations or movies; they can be great for gaming too. Playing a video game on a huge projection screen can be a more immersive experience than playing on a computer monitor or television.
What are the best projectors for daylight viewing? Daylight and bright rooms need a projector with 2500 lumens or more or the audience won't be able to see the picture. Consider the size of your home theater or business conference room, and for movies or games, choose a multimedia projector.
