Can you post a photo of the cables as they are hooked up into the back of the TV?

nvr mind got it fixed

 

Just had to replace the yellow composite cable with my green one, since the yellow composite only gave me 480i while the green one gave me full hd..

So right after buying component cables for my ps3 and hooked it right up to my smart visio hdtv..I tried to change some settings on my ps3 to change it from 480i to 480p, 720p, 1080i but none of them would work and just cause my screen to go black saying no signal?

 

So pretty much my tv is stuck at 480i though the component cables should allow me to increase the resolution on my ps3...

 

Anyway, component cables bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B1BMH7A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

Very similar smart hdtv: https://www.vizio.com/e32c1.html

 

Why not hdmi? because my ps3 hdmi port has one of its pins bent and broken

When turning on your ps3, hold the on button until you hear two beeps. It should reset your video settings

That's about what I was expecting, hence asking for the photo.

Yeah, if i wasn't able to figure it out, the use of the photo of how my cables were arranged would have helped you to figure it out anyway :)
