(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I was playing my PS3 through an HDMI cable while on vacation and now when i try to play with the composite cables, nothing shows up on my tv.

how do i switch it back so that i can use composite cables?

I think youve gotta go back to hdmi and put in the settings(i think its 480p). should work.

yep, you have to plug in the HDMI AND the composite, then go to settings and, display settings, then change it to composite. switch your TV over to the composite input, and you should be good to go Winky Winky.

Yeah that should fix your problem because it resets your PS3 settings to default.
