Am_I_Evil Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 had a scare...almost thought the update killed my system... went back to the PS3 input on my TV and the update was done and it said something like "cannot open, incorrect harddisk found" i was like wtf? went up to the PS3 and rebooted and it seems to be fine...checked the system info and it says 2.10 so i guess everything's ok... *i upgraded the HDD myself so i thought maybe this update didn't like that or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webcivilian Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Don't know if any one noticed but now you dont need to plug in SIXAXIS with the USB cable when updating the system/firmware.

SnowRanger13 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 My Xvid files wont play :(. My guess is it has to do with the audio format and not the video format of the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Caro Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 My Xvid files wont play :(. My guess is it has to do with the audio format and not the video format of the file. I have one that doesn't work, but I've only tried a few. I wonder why some won't work? If it is the audio indeed, it probably has to do with the audio format OR the audio bitrate. The one that didn't work for me had MP3 audio, the ones that worked I think had AC3 audio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony announced today that the UK PlayStation 3 community will be receiving a new system software update on Tuesday December 18th. The announcement was posted through PlayStation UK's system software updates page and details all the new features that will be added with this update.One of the most exciting features to be released was the recently announced partnership with DivX Inc., to bring DivX playback to the PlayStation 3. This has been something that PS3 owners have looking forward as the system excepted most movie/video files in the past except those that are DivX encoded. Another new feature is a voice changer that can be used in conjunction with your bluetooth headset. The voice changer will allow you to change the tone of a voice being input from your headset or microphone. There are five preset levels from which the user can choose from. The tone will be modifiable when using voice/video chat under Friends. One last feature that the update brings is for the Blu-Ray player as it updates the Blu-Ray profile to the new 1.1. The biggest feature that the new profile brings is the ability to play picture in picture videos (it is dependent on each individual disc). The picture in picture may be useful when watching a movie and in a corner there is a video of the director commenting on a particular scene.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 18, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted December 18, 2007 Sneaky Extra Stuff in FW 2.10New visualiser the sexiest thing ever As well as providing DivX and WMV playback in the latest firmware as we revealed yesterday (which is now out, by the way) Sony have added a couple of really cool new features that aren't documented in the changelist. Firstly, they've added a new 'planet' music visualiser from our friends at Q Games (press 'square' when playing music) which has got to be the most amazing thing we've ever seen. They've also fixed the video thumbnails in folders not playing, and finally BD/DVD Dynamic Range Control has been tweaked for those late night sessions. With the recent changes the PS3 is now the ultimate Blu-ray player, and the first 1.1 Profile movies come out on the 1st of January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
