The Sony Playstation 3 is the third-generation gaming console in the playstation line-up.

Issues

White spots appear on the HDTV

The most likely cause of this issue is enabled video options that are either incompatible with the TV or with the HDMI cable. Certain HDMI versions do not support some features the PS3's display options offer.

Solution 1 - HDMI Cable incompatible with deep color

Start up your Playstation 3
Navigate to Settings
Scroll down until you see Display Settings
Set Deep Color Output (HDMI) to Off

Solution 2

Start up your Playstation 3
Navigate to Settings
Scroll down until you see Display Settings
Set Cross Colour Reduction Filter to Off
Set RGB Full Range (HDMI) to Limited
Set Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr Super-White (HDMI) to Off
Set Deep Color Output (HDMI) to Off
Turn on each setting and observe the TV for white spots
