Is it better to up-convert and scale in the AV Receiver on in the HDTV?

It is always better to use the better scaler. That isn't meant to be a flippant answer but there is no fixed answer. All scalers take the original image and redraw it, working out what each pixel would look like if there was a pixel at the particular position, based on the original image. It is a complex process and is not an exact science. Good quality broadcast scalers can cost upwards of $20,000, going to as high as $150,000 for the very best. Scalers in domestic equipment are clearly a far lower cost and they all make compromises. Some scalers may perform well with specific content. Sports have different image dynamics to drama for example. While one scaler may work well with sports, another might perform better with drama content. As TV and other domestic equipment manufacturers publish no data on the performance of their scalers, the only way to find out is to try it. It is often the case that a dedicated AV receiver and scaler will perform better than the internal scaler in a TV. That is not always the case, so it's worth trying all combinations before deciding on your preferred solution.

How do hook up HDMI cable to PS3?
I plugged the HDMI cable into the HDTV and into the PS3. Then I went to the settings for both the HDTV and the PS3 slim and set them for HDMI and sync. When it works right putting a disc into the PS3 will turn on the HDTV and also switch the HDTV over to that HDMI input rather than a cable box or similar item even if it was on the cable box when you last used the HDTV.
