It's gonna be really intresting testing the DivX Function. :)
For me, I have several Video/audio files on my Computer which I would prefer to stream onto the PS3 rather than copy my files. Now, if the PS3 is going to be able to stream WMV files, then I don't have to convert many files. I can stream them directly. Hooray!
...bring on MKV HD support instead, its the year 2007 isn't it ? wasn't divx considered good quality in the 90's ?
WMV video files, do people actually use those ?
Except for random pron downloads...
A lot of websites use WMV and give no other choices that the PS3 will support so yeah I am happy to see that I will be able to view them through my PS3's web browser, I hope. One of my favorite websites is Gametrailers.com.
Hopefully it doesn't suck like the 360 version I have the 360 and have data disks of avi container files and it will not read any of them.
We are unable to locate the page requested. If you think this is a broken link, you can report the error by visiting the Contact Us page. Otherwise, try returning to the Home Page or using Search to continue browsing playstation.com.
Seems to have been removed :S
yeah,it says the same to me too....
odd +O ?
qj staff needed please >_< !
fix the link !
thank you ^_^
whoa. you guys are right indeed! it seems that the page has been removed! or, at least, temporarily re-paged somewhere else, maybe. and we double checked. that really is supposed to be the link.
if you want to double check for yourself, you can see the bluray.com post (we linked to blu-ray's site in the article body). they linked to the same page. and also, the same error. if you check other sites reporting the news, they source the same page too.
strange indeed... thanks for pointing it out, guys!
DivX and WMV support :D Glad to see Sony finally adding more support so we don't have to resort to "work arounds" just to view media.
Now I can browse my favorite websites that use WMV format using the PS3 web browser! Now only if we had updated flash support and a copy and paste function in the web browser.
THAT WOULD ROCK MY SOCKS AWAY T_T ~
and how about in-game music ?
thatvideosite dot com will work. full of funny stuff.
@YaMi_SeNsEi
be patient and u will see. Sony already have comfirmed they workin on ingame XBM
Nah man, every site I checked has the same link, and they all dead, I think this is a slip up, I aint to sure now weather to actually expect this update tomorrow or sometime in the near future, no doubt it is real, but just a wait at hand. Saying that though, I am extremly hopeful at seeing it tomorrow. Who knows....
am crossing my fingers as we speak XD lol !
the rumour was true. It's only a day away.
you guys said:
"The website said (before it was pulled down), that "an update to the PS3 system software was released on December 18, 2007.""
You say it must have been a slip up because it was past tense and probably meant to go up after the FW was released, but did you guys miss something?
Look,
"an update to the PS3 system software was released on December 18, 2007"
Yes it says past tense, "was released on", so yes it is meant to go up after the update goes out... butt... it fully says the date the FW went up!
December 18th, 2007!
Which is tomorrow, so then that little text says that it is supposed to come out tomorrow since in the future they will say it came out on the 18 :P lol.
So it really is comming out tomorrow? Looks that way according to the text.
Only time will tell.
"Also, according to the Blu-ray website, the new Voice Changer function will be able to support in-game chat. Hopefully this indicates progress towards in-game access to the XMB."
If thats right then hell yea!
maybe it's just that the voice changer will work in game chat like the game have now... no in game message... that will be the best feature they can do.. anyway let's see if the update go live or if it was just a mistake...
Back to the rumour mill I go.
I think you guys are looking at the past tense thing a little to much. Besides Someone might have deleted it by accident. Im still thinking its coming out tomorrow.
(Just for your reference) If a game is released on PS3 about one year later than on X360, almost no one buys the PS3 version because the (PS3) game is ancient then (1 year is considered extremely old in gaming world); moreover, millions of people already own the same game for PC or X360 (they obviously don’t buy again); Therefore, PS3 versions of Bioshock and some other games are total ‘jokes’ (no one buys these ancient games).
[ Top X360 Exclusive Games ]
* Gears of War (90 points): Graphics! All you do is hide-shoot-hide-shoot-hide-shoot-(repeat this 9999 times more)
* BioShock (85 pts): Graphics & atmosphere! The entire game is only 10 hours long; no big reasons to replay
* Project Gotham Racing 4 (75 pts)
* Forza Motorsport 2 (70 pts): All those various customization is only for lifeless idi+ts
* Halo 3 (80 pts): It has almost same gameplay as the 3 year old Halo 2. Terrible and highly pixelated graphics in close proximity
* Burnout Revenge (70 pts): At first sight it looks fantastic, but once you played it for 1 hour then it gets extremely boring
* Dead or Alive 4 (50 pts)
* Mass Effect (40 pts): Its graphics is even much worse than the 2 year old game, Perfect Dark Zero; Horrible frame rate very frequently; the gun fight is terrible and laughable (just compare with any shooter game)
* Command & Conquer 3 (45 pts)
* Eternal Sonata (20 pts): ROFL
* Saints Row + Prey + Quake 4 (this ‘Joke Value Pack’ includes 3 games: 10+10+10=30 pts): Terrible frame rate all the time (LMAO) and X360 versions have bland graphics (ROFL); the multiplays are jokes, right? (LOL)
* Dead Rising (70 pts)
* Lost Planet (70 pts): If only a few things were right, this deserves 90 pts
* Crackdown (20 pts): Crap down!
* Blue Dragon (90 pts if your mental maturity is ten): or 20pts
[ Top PS3-Lonely (Only) Games ]
* Warhawk (90 pts): Technologically and graphically mind-blowing, because the map is ridiculously huge, ground combat is terrible, but the air combat is groundbreaking; this is the real bomb so far, a lot of X360 fanbots I know are mesmerized by this game
* SingStar (20 pts): Ok, this new PS3 release is lame! The graphics is suitable for PS2 console
* Unreal Tournament 3 (45 pts): Terrific graphics with atmospheric layout; balanced map design, weapons and many more; seriously, the soldiers (characters) move around as fast as the hedgehog, Sonic!!!; really, the moving speed (of ground soldiers) is a joke (this takes all the fun); if the developers reduce the walking (running) speed then this is 10 times better than the similar game called Halo 3.
* Uncharted Drake's Fortune (60 pts): Luscious graphics! but the entire game’s 5 hours long; the gunplay is weak as hell; brain-dead enemies (LOL)
* MotorStorm (80 pts): Top-notch graphics and technological achievement! The maps are too big (if the maps are smaller, then we can see more car versus car actions – this is MotorStorm’s strongest point)
* Heavenly Sword (50 pts): Gorgeous graphics! but the combat sucks a+s; and the whole game’s 6 hours long (and repetitive); no reasons to play again
* Resistance Fall of Man (70 pts): when you look at things closely they are very ugly and highly pixelated; average graphics in general! mindless run & gun garbage
* Ratchet & Clank Future (fantastic! 90pts, if you’re mentally 10 year old): or 30 pts
* Ninja Gaiden Sigma (30 pts): Same as Ninja Gaiden Black (years old!!!)
* Folklore (15 pts)
* Lair (10 pts): LMAO
just stop it already... post it where someone wants to read it...
don't even consider replaying to a nut job like axo7yjhby whatever her/his name is,even though she says she's a girl,I doubt it :P !
but hey,"girls" like you suck anyways xD !!
keep that in mind "sister" :)
It's out already
ABOUT TO DOWNLOAD!
Installing Right Now got 500gb full of Divx .
Will give more feed back later
just lets see
HEY GUYS THE UPDATE IS OUT AND READY TO GO! SORRY I DONT HAVE ENOUGH INFO TO FIND OUT IF ALL THE FEATURES MENTION ARE AVAILABLE WITH THIS UPDATE BECAUSE ITS STILL DOWNLOADING, I'M KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED!
Mean while the update downloads, i have received an e-mail from EA in which its an invitation to test out a new shooter game in LA; in which its just 20 min from where i live.
Here is what the e-mail says:

Yes Hurray !
the update has finished downloading and the update features are
A voice changing feature has been added to enable changing of your voice pitch during chat. Your can adjust this setting under [settings] > [Accessory Setting] > [Voice Changer].
DivX and VC-1 (WMV) have been added as codecs that can be played under [Video].
You can now select [Type 3] under [Bitmapping] in [Settings]> [Music Settings].
Great!
It works...but totally screwed up...even when changing the FourCC code. The ID tag is screwed up. I put in a 24 minute XviD file and the time shows up as 5 seconds on the PS3 and only plays for 5 seconds...haven't tried a DivX file yet.
I downloaded WMV from Gametrailers.com and YES, you can save it to the hard drive and play it on PS3 the PS3!
I checked all my sources and all of them said the 18th. And, here we are. Due to the high level of complaints, we can expect another update soon. Not a rumour, just logical.
A few of my DivX files play now - but only the ones that played in the 360 with their DivX update.
Quality is quite good though - and the PS3 can skip through DivX files MUCH faster than 360.
Only thing I hate so far is the fact that the PS3 has to read EVERY DivX file on a DVD before you can play a file.

It seems im right yet again. The firmware update was real. I told you, you was looking at the past tense thing a little to much.
