I guess the FMV cutscenes in FFXII are now properly deinterlaced without combing? That would be great, 'cos I've put that game on hold because the cutscenes looked so ugly on PS3.
PS3 Firmware 1.80 - PS/PS2/DVD upscaling, DLNA and more!
- Thread starter Titanio
- Start date
I never noticed it, maybe they fixed that in 1.5 before I bought FFXII.

what a great update. they fixed pretty much all the most complained about issues.
My LCD reported 1920x1080 as the input signal during FFXII.

the flashing issue that was present with some of the westinghouse sets (seems like it was the 1080p models) is fixed according to someone at avsforum.

seems like only the supported video formats work (ie mpeg1/2/4 avc etc). hopefully sony will include support for xvid/divx and wmv.

There are 5 classes of devices (mobile has another set):
* Media Server
* Media Player
* Media Renderer
* Media Controller
* Media Printer
The following are the standard and optional media profiles:
Standard Image Format (Must implement all): JPEG
Optional Image Format (Must implement 1 or more): PNG, GIF, TIFF
Standard Audio: LPCM
Optional Audio: AAC, AC-3, ATRAC 3plus, MP3, WMA9
Standard AV: MPEG2
Optional AV: MPEG-1, MPEG-4*, AVC, WMV9
My guess is we will need to pay for the optional video codecs (if Sony or any third party supports it).
I think this is only the beginning. If the CES 2006 demo is any indication, we should see more interesting interaction later (e.g., "drag" the current playing video off a PSP and throw it to a DLNA-compliant TV).

The WMV stuff is not so important as i have next to nothing in that format, but for some net streams it´s very handy. In any case most of my stuff is on a Harddrive so i don´t have to have a Server running just to watch pics of the kid
I don't have a good feel. I am under the impression that the DLNA Media Server should extract the appropriate video/audio streams from the container and send them to PS3. So someone please write a good DLNA media server.
As always, the real issue is DRM. The Access DLNA Netfront specs somewhere on this forum has more details about their approach (and support for protected WMV files).
I don't know whether Sony will eventually use WMV. They have their own DRM technologies and partners.

Testing it right now with TwonkyMedia; MP3s (the bulk of my music) are detected just fine. JPG images appear to work. *All* of my video related media (mostly within avi and mkv) that I'm making available to the ps3 is detected as unsupported. Having access to all of my music is nice at least.
How about .TS files, tried those?
Don't have any TSs on hand, sorry. I took a look around TwonkyVision's forums and they're reporting (pretty much) what I've experienced thus far. Server seems to be serving unsupported media -- it shouldn't be doing that. Any suggestions on media servers I could try?
Edit: wait a sec I have nero as well. going to try that momentarily.

There most be some automatic configuration going on, but http://www.tversity.com/ has profiles for the specific devices anyway?
The PS3 support in that is purely Flash Based and.. well it sucks a bit
Usually i have had a Streamium Device from Philips that i used for parties but that interface was pretty slow.. XMB would be fantastic...

I played around with WMP 11 and here's what I found so far:
* If you quit the WMP client, DLNA connection breaks.
* Contrary to what I said, RemotePlay *works* with DLNA. I disrupted the network setup earlier on, so my PS3 was having trouble finding the media server.
* WMP 11 organizes the media files nicely (e.g., by artists, album, keywords, time, ...) depending on the media type. But it does not seem to recognize MP4 files. I'll have to try a different media server later.
