PS3 Firmware 2.20 to enable Portable Copy *Update* |
Ó
We previously gave you a heads-up on what could be the features of Sony PlayStation 3 Firmware 2.20. Now, a new report ups the ante by revealing yet another cool feature.PC World recently revealed that PS3 FW 2.20 will support "Portable Copy". Essentially, it strengthens the bond of Sony's console with its handheld counterpart, the PlayStation Portable, by allowing movie sharing.
Portable Copy lets users create standard-definition versions of Blu-ray movies and transfers them to the PSP.
This goes with other enhancements that BD-Live, otherwise known as Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0, will bring.
We'll keep an eye out for more information on this exciting development. Keep checking back here with us to make sure you don't miss it.
*Update* Wohoo. Not so fast, sparky. Turns out that PSP Portable Copy may not arrive with PS3 FW 2.20.

Nicey, Shame I Only Have 1 BD Movie
That one BD movie wouldn't happen to be Talladega Nights, would it?
lol that's what my PS3 came with. He could also be talking about Spider-man 3 since that comes with all the 40GB PS3s.
you have forgotten that in europe sony had released casino royale for the first buyers :)
MisterAV Thats Exactly What Ive Got :) The Free One, xD
I only have the one blueray movie which is casino royal [thanks sony]
But this might actually make me buy some.
is it sad to be looking forward to a firmware update
Nopee Its Not Sad, I Was Once Looking For The 2.00 Update Which Has In Game XMB!... Oh No Wait, No It Doesnt
thats pretty cool. Will come in handy a lot when I start buying more Blu-ray's.
I though copying blu-ray movies to the psp already out? or that was unofficial way?
that was just news. They announced this would be available a LONG time ago, but now I guess it's being reinforced.
a really good move by sony, this will push more sales to the psp too for movie fans I guess.
The weird thing is that microsoft have a zune and we can't transfer the movies from the 360 to the zune
here I come.
i was planning on building a blu-ray collection and now i guess i definately will. :)
I only have 1 Blu-Ray movie as well which is The Prestige. I got it for free from that Blu-Ray training site along with a pin/keychain and some other stuff.
rent and keep! lol SONY DOES IT TO THEMSELVES AGAIN. THEY MUST LOVE PEOPLE KEEPING THEIR STUFF, IF YA KNOW WHAT i MEAN!
it will have a time thing or to register the bluray like the resident evil dvd
Dude, OMG! That's halarious! I've never thought of that!
is a drm stipping app. hell I got sony's.
need like 8gigs or more.
but is it right?
has sony forgotten there are rental shops,
you can easily rent a bluray movie then have a copy on the psp which you can easily transfer to your pc, which can be copied to who knows where!
i got an 8 gb, still not big enough
said in the readme of 3.90 M33-2, the technical limit is 2TB ;)
You will need approximately 1.5 for an average length movie encoded at 1500 kbps.

One thing that I'm not clear about... Does this "Portable Copy" feature actually transcode the movie to a PSP-friendly format (resolution, file format, etc.), or does it just copy a pre-recorded version of the movie to the PSP?
If the former, GREAT!!! I already transcode DVDs that I have purchased to view on my PSP while riding the train on my daily commute, but have no way of doing this for my BDs. Would I be able to also have subtitles on the transcoded version (sometimes hard to hear the audio even with the volume all the way up on a train, and foreign moves I prefer to hear the original dialog and read the subtitles)?
If the latter, how does one tell when buying a BD movie that it has a pre-recorded version suitable for this feature on the disc?
Hmmm... I think Sony is aware of that. The movie you can transfer to the PSP will probably have some kind of time limit on the PSP or it or it can be played a certain amount of times, then you would have to copy it again, or maybe it will only be playable on the memory stick you transfer the movie. I dunno, but I don't think they are gonna make it easy to be copy.
PS
sorry for my bad English lol
