So I just bought my PAL 60gig PS3 and have connected it up to a 42 inch 1080p HDTV Plasma (HDMI) as well as to a Yamaha 5.1 surround system (Optical Out)

I have downloaded and installed the 1.90 firmware update and I was just wondering which of the following options I should choose (some options I had a guess at and then decided to come here first so as not to brick my machine!)

The option in brackets at the end of each setting is the one I have it currently set to:

SETTINGS:
BD/DVD SETTINGS
Cinema Conversion>automatic/video (automatic)

Dvd Upscaler>off/double scale/normal/full screen (full screen)

Bd/Dvd Video Output Format (HDMI)>automatic/RGB/ypb cb pr cr (automatic)

Bd1080p 24hz Output (HDMI)>automatic/off/on (automatic)

Bd/Dvd audio output format (HDMI)>Bitstream/linear PCM (Linear PCM)

Bd audio output format (optical digital)>bitstream/linear PCM (bitstream)

Also....

SETTINGS:
DISPLAY SETTINGS
Cross Colour Reduction Filter>off/on (off)
RGB Fullrange (HDMI)>limited/full (full)
Ypb Cb pr CR Super-white (HDMI)>on/off (on)

Also.....

SETTINGS:
GAME SETTINGS
Ps/Ps2 Upscaler>off/normal/fullscreen (off)
Ps/Ps2 Smoothing> off/on (off)

And finally...

SETTINGS:
SOUND SETTINGS
Audio Output Settings>digital out (optical)>
Dolby Digital 5.1 ch (ticked)
DTS 5.1 ch (ticked)
AAC (NOT ticked)
Linear PCM 2 ch 44.1 khz (ticked)
Linear PCM 2 ch 88.2 khz (NOT ticked)
Linear PCM 2 ch 176.4 khz (NOT ticked)
Linear PCM 2 ch 48 khz (ticked)

Thanks very much.

It looks to me like your settings are fine.

To me, things vary by television set. I'd just play around with it until you find good settings that you like.

Now that I've had time to think about it there are really just a couple of questions about settings that I'm not sure about.

For example:

What is better (higher quality?) between Bitstream and linear PCM?

and also..

What does Cross Colour Reduction Filter do and should I have it on?

Thanks.
