ive read alot of stuff online about this, and they all pretty much say the same thing. most of it being that if you want to plug your PS3 into your PC monitor, the monitor must be HDCP compliant and it needs to be connected via a HDMI-DVI cable.
but, what if your monitor has a HDMI input? wouldnt it be simpler to plug the PS3 into the HDMI port? i read that if a monitor has a HDMI port, it will be HDCP compliant on the HDMI port. anyone can confirm this or explain why it wouldnt work? every site ive read doesnt mention anything about HDMI-HDMI. they only list HDMI-DVI, which i find odd.
thanks in advance
PS: wasnt sure which forum to place this on, so chose gaming as it seemed like the most appropriate. please move to the correct one if applicable.
