THE 'PS3 and PSP FIRMWARE' THREAD


THE DIRECTOR

Recommended Posts

Dude coping your Divx files on to your PS3 Hdd is so cool... This is forsure a big advantage for the ppl who own PS3 against 360 owners fantastic... Need to get a bigger HDD now can anyone suggest me which is a good one to put and how to put... :jumpy:

 

If you read V's post, he recommends the Seagate Momentus 7200 series (2.5" SATA). Now, as to how to put the hdd inside the ps3, there are many guides if you search on google or even youtube :)

 

I guess HDD with higher RPM than 7200 will give marginally better performance but will cost higher at this point. I wonder whats the highest RPM on 2.5" sata HDD available these days.

Firmware Update (v2.17)

 

If you’ve signed in to the PLAYSTATION Network tonight on your PS3, you probably noticed that you were prompted to upgrade the system’s firmware to v2.17. In case you were wondering what it’s all about (and a quick Google search indicates that yes, you are) the operating stability of some online PS3 titles has been improved.

PS3 firmware 2.20 bringing BD-Live interactive Blu-ray this month

 

 

The Blu-ray 2.0 spec (or BD-Live) is just days from launch. Sony just announced that the next PlayStation3 firmware updated -- v2.20 -- will add the new interactive features to your PS3. As such, PS3 owners should expect downloadable video content, ringtones, interactive movie-based games, and the always intriguing "more" when the software is released in "late March." In other words, in the next 11 days. The update will also allow you to copy photos and music playlists over USB from your PS3 to your PSP. The rest of the new features after the break.

 

-- "Resume play" will enable PS3 system to start playing a Blu-ray disc

and DVD at the point it was stopped, even if the disc had been

removed.(*1)

-- "Audio Output Device" will be a new Remote Play setting, enabling PSP

to serve as a remote control for music played through PS3.

-- PS3 system's Internet browser will be enhanced: Video files directly

linked from a Web page will be able to be streamed, and the browser's

view speed will be improved.

-- DivX and WMV format videos that are larger than 2GB will be playable.

-- "Mosquito Noise Reduction" will be added as an AV setting in the

control panel of the DVD/BD player for improved movie playback.(*2)
