Rangefinder FX
MemberI played it at the start of the year then went throough other games then ive come back on the game and now on all of the cutscenes the characters voices cant be heard.
does anyone know what this is may it be becuase of the HDMI cable that i have becuase the HD level is 760p which may be the problem i think

MemberThe HD level of what, The cable? I didn't think they had limitations. Try switching to av cables and play it using those. Painful as it may be, it will tell you if you have a faulty HDMI cable.

Participanti can tell you now the reason why this is happening is because of the way you have your sound setup.
how is your setup all connected?
examples
ps3 >–(hdmi)–> hdtv >–(optical)–> speakers
or
ps3 >–(hdmi)–> hdtv with inbuilt speakers.
or
ps3 >–(hdmi)–> hdtv
>–(optical)–> speakers
______________________
put simply, TV's don't like re-routing sound.
if you are re-routing the sound to your amp from your tv through hdmi originating from your ps3, you will get the problem you describe. this can be fixed by setting your ps3 sound output to hdmi with only 2.1 surround (because that's what the tv thinks the sound source is).
OR the proper way to do it:
Connect your ps3 DIRECTLY to your TV and speakers with hdmi and optical. a direct connect connection will ensure true surround when your ps3 output is set to optical with 5.1. make sure you put the correct frequency as well because setting it too high can damage the speakers. check your speaker's manual if you're unsure.
by doing either one of these, im sure you will eliminate the problem.
for additional help, please provide more details about your setup.
February 22, 2010 at 6:11 pm #58267MemberNinjacat:- i mean the HD level of the game which it says on the back of the case.
Shadeblack:- It has happened on my fifa 09 before when i first started using the cable it did not allow me to here the sound of the commentary and the ball being hit. and the settings which i have are all Linear settings on the audio output settings and all of those seem to be on the lowest frequency does this suggest anything to you.
Thankyou for your help it is appreciated

Memberhmm – is it for all games or just fifa and uncharted? My friend has an older HDTV where the input will only recieve the video signal for his sound. As a result we have to use AV cables for the audio only, and set the output of the PS3 for sound to AV, and then make sure the tv is set to recieve sound through that while on the HD signal for video. Its goofy. You could try doing the audio video reset when starting the ps3 (press and hold power on until it beeps again) and seeing if it will auto detect for video and sound (it doesn't always work right, since it doesn't with my friend's set that I mentioned).
February 23, 2010 at 5:49 pm #58321Participanti've only ever had the problem with uncharted and uncharted 2 myself.
i don't have fifa so can't say.
but basically it's because of the sound codecs used in the game. the speech is supposed to come from the center speaker, but most normal tv's only have a left and right speaker, which makes the speech sound quiet because all you're hearing is the echo effect of speech, which would normally come from the left and right surround speakers.
like i said before, tv's don't like to re-route surround sound. so the best solution is to connect the ps3 directly to a surround sounds speaker setup via optical cable. if you don't have surround sound and just use the tv speakers, make sure the ps3 audio settings is set to hdmi with default 2.1 settings. should work fine then.
February 24, 2010 at 3:55 pm #58366MemberDoesnt happen for MW2 everything is fine when i play that and the games i tried to plat before (Tekken 6 and AC2) had no problems with the sound its.
