Hello,
I just got this adapter today off Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Importer520-Plated-Female-DVI-D-A... When I plug the adapter to my monitor with my PS3/PS4 I get nothing on the screen except black. When I plug the hdmi into my PC then hook the adapter up to the monitor I'm greeted by my PC homepage :) . Anyone know what the problem is? Any input on the situation would be greatly appreciated!

You need to setup the ps3/4 to support the cable you are using before you start using it. Go into display settings and try and find it there

What setting am I supposed to use? I've looked all over the settings menu but nothing seems to match what i'm doing. Also, thanks

use the s-video cable that came with the ps3, plug it into some tv screen and set up, from the display settings option, to use hdmi. otherwise it won't work
