Can you burn a normal dvd insert it into your ps3 and rip the dvd onto your ps3's hardrive? If you can't do that can you rip a dvd so it can play without a dvd and place that file on an external hardrive and then can you place the film onto your ps3's hardive and play it?
what is better to use online, ethernet or wireless. I have a 2mbps internet connectoion and i was wondering which one would be faster and better?
You can rip a DVD on your computer, and then stream it to your PS3 or convert it to another format and put it on your PS3 HD. However, the PS3 does not have video ripping capabilities and most likely never will.
You cannot force a higher resolution onto your TV, it must be capable of this already.
Well if your TV has S-Video Use that or if it has component try that but on a CRT with component inputs you wont get higher then 480i but it will give the picture more real colour etc.
When you watch HD game trailers on a PC screen Like a normal CRT it is technically HD since the PC screen is ussually capable of displaying 1080i 1920x1080 or around that at 85+hz.
A pc screen can run as high as 1080i some even higher but no (P) mode Progressive scan you need an LCD to do that since Progressive is Plasmas and LCD's native output.
What TV are you talking about?
A Standard Defintion TV (SD) can only output 480i which is a normal 640x480 picture no matter what it will stay at this size.
You can Have S-Video or Component besides the RCA (Yellow,Red,White) which will improve picture quality a bit but the component cables will still only run at 480i because your TV is (SD-480i) you need a LCD or PLasma to actually show anything from 480p upwards unless you have a High Defenition CRT which can only still run the (I) Mode (Interlaced 480i,720,1080i)etc but since you stated (SD) no the max you can get it 480i adding any other cords like Component or S-Video if you have the sockets on your tv will only improve it a little bit.
If your asking about HDMI on this (SD) TV then the answer is no HDMI Minumim output is 480p and no one uses it unless they want the absolute top picture quality only newer TV's have this and only PLasma's and LCD's have it.
