How to Connect PS3 to Laptop HDMI

Best Answer

You can't directly connect your PS3 to your laptop via HDMI because most laptop HDMI ports are output-only. You'd need a capture card to use your laptop as a monitor for your PS3.

Nope, most laptops' HDMI ports are output-only. You need a capture card or a video adapter to make it work.

As someone who tried this, I can confirm it doesn't work without a capture card. Ended up buying one, and now my laptop doubles as a PS3 screen!

Just buy a cheap capture card from Amazon. Plug the PS3 into the capture card, and then the capture card into your laptop's USB port.
