How to Connect a PS3 to a Toshiba TV With an HDMI Cord

The PlayStation 3 (PS3) is a high definition gaming and media device that supports video connections for both standard and high-definition Toshiba TVs. HDMI, or High-Definition Multimedia Interface, is limited to only high-definition Toshiba TVs and offers the highest quality video connection available for the PS3. HDMI transmits an uncompressed audio and video signal in a single cable, making it the simplest video connection supported by the PS3. Any HDMI cable will work with the PS3.
