And yet you apologized for the level of bickering later in your post, but you start with that
you said: 'Good luck with that playing a movie in bluray quality.
Yes. And I said I wasn't clear, and then gave my reason
and i showed you XV-BP1 does exactly that. as about flash cards, last time i checked the usb mass-storage protocol was not limited to flash cards alone. you should check out these external hdd's some day, they're a great.
I own 2 terabyte external drives, but PS3 doesnt support NTFS/files bigger than 2 GB making HD playback annoying.
Though Im sure I specified memory sticks
the free altermative was handicapped for a long time - it could not play UMD-bitrate movies from the MS until fw 3.70, just because sony were trying to push UMD movies into wide adoption. your psp developer friend should have told you at least that.
I knew about that, but my PSP developer friend is a PSP developer, not a media fanatic.
And it was crippled by the code they used (from cell phones), not on purpose. We were able to work around it since day 1
says the person who has not played either wipeout or ridge racer.
So? You havent played every game with cd quality sound or FMV yet you're trying to claim they are both useless in any case.
1. DJ max is not a multi-disk game. it just has the Link Disc feature that allows the game to read the tracks from other versions.
2. Clannad is basically an interactive video novel.
1. I didnt play them, I just googled for multi disc games.
2. All you've done is prove the FMV is crucial to the gameplay like the cd quality music in lumines
that leaves us with LoH4 and Eiyuu-densetsu - two typical JRPGs where devs knock themselves silly with cutscenes.
Prove it if you're going to whine about it then.
i doubt an actual developer would say that ME and allegrex 'cannot multitask'
They didn't. Dont attribute all my statements to other devs. The only statements I've got from other devs is there is no HAL on the GPU, and the second processor runs code just like the first.
I didnt say ME/allegrex dont multitask, I said PSP isnt. When media is playing, its only playing media and nothing else, up until recently when they let photos and music play at the same time
. here's a little 'pro-tip' for you: go into the xmb music menu of your psp, press play on a tune, press 'home' button - watch ME and the CPU miraculously work together.
Protip, that's not really multitasking since up until recently, any time you clicked an item in the XMB it would stop playing. I've made a small PSP game before that played music and the game at the same time on the main CPU, the second processor isnt needed for it.
Protip, I already included when it does multitask. It's not a protip if I've said it.
and re the whole 'my dad said'
I didnt say that. Though your lack of actual evidence is worse.
if you sources do not know about libgu (reversed engineered and widely used for homebrew for many years now) that's their own problem.
I didnt say they didnt know about it. I said that doesnt prove there is a HAL. Nor could any wrapper. Wrappers tell me they are optional to the dev. HAL is not.
learn your facts or stay out of tech arguments.
And yet you apologized for the level of bickering later in your post, but you continue with that
see, here's where you'd quote a statement from sony's sdk. in a PM, if you felt that'd break somebody's NDA.
If I had an NDA to break, it wouldnt be worth it to PM you anything.
But you're right, this isn't an argument. You think you can decide for every PSP owner/dev that CD quality music and FMV are a waste of space for no reason. And ask for evidence without giving me any.
