PlayStation 2

London, 20th March 2008 – Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) today announced that system software update v.2.20, for PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3™), planned for release in late March, will add Blu-ray Disc™ (BD) Profile 2.0 (known as BD-LIVE). With the ability to take full advantage of interactive features, such as downloadable video content, ringtones, games, and more, BD-LIVE promises to offer PS3 users the ultimate interactive film experience. In addition to BD-LIVE, the system software update will enable photo and music playlists on a PS3 to be copied to a PSP™(PlayStation®Portable), as well as other new features.

To access Blu-ray Profile 2.0, users require an Internet connection and at least 1GB of local storage. Movies with BD-LIVE are scheduled for release next month.

The following features have been demonstrated to be possible with BD-LIVE and will vary depending on the title:

· A variety of downloadable content, including bonus scenes, shorts, trailers, subtitles, ringtones that can be sent to mobile phones, images, and more.

· Interactive movie-based games can pit players who are sitting in the same room, or are across the world and online, against each other.

In addition to BD-LIVE, system software update v.2.20 enhances PS3’s relationship with PSP, enabling users to copy their favourite music and photo playlists to their PSP and experience them on-the-go. This new functionality makes it easer than ever to share media content between the two systems.

The following new features will also be included in the system software update:

· “Resume play” will enable PS3 to start playing a BD and DVD video at the point it was stopped, even if the disc had been removed.*1

· “Audio Output Device” will be a new Remote Play setting, enabling PSP to serve as a remote control for music played through PS3.

· PS3’s Internet browser will be enhanced: Video files directly linked from a Web page will be able to be streamed, and the browser’s view speed will be improved.

· DivX and WMV format videos that are larger than 2GB will be playable.

· “Mosquito Noise Reduction” will be added as an AV setting in the control panel of the DVD/BD player for improved movie playback.*2

*1 BD-J format disc is not supported.

*2 BD discs recorded with BDMV format are not supported.

Salut, am si eu o intrebare.

Cum pot face ca jocul Grand Turismo 4 pt Ps2 sa-mi mearga si mie pe 1080i.
Am inteles ca ar merge fara probleme, dar eu nu am reusit deloc. Am versiunea originala PAL, un teveu HD ready, iar pt. consola am cumparat cablu Component.

Apas de nebun triunghi si X cand boot-eaza jocul dar nimic, am citit pe undeva ca aceasta rezolutie s-a putea selecta chiar si din meniul jocului,  numai ca al meu clar nu are asa ceva.

Sunt curios daca cineva a reusit sa faca jocul sa mearga la 1080i. Este posibil ca numai versiunea NTSC sa mearga la rezolutia asta? pt. ca multe jocuri pe care le am in versiune PAL nici macar nu merg cu scanare progresiva.

Multumesc.

Nu poti juca GT4 de PS2 la 1080i. nu e facut jocul cu asa grafica.
Daca ai PlayStation 3 poti astepta ca se lanseaza Gran Turismo 5 de PS3. ala o sa mearga in 1080i.
Apropo tvul tau e HD Ready, nu e Full HD, sunt ceva diferente, cauta pe net.
PS: Banuiesc ca ai PS2, calitatea cea mai buna e cu cablu RGB.

Stiu care sunt diferentele inre HD ready si full HD, si inteleg ca jocul nu va rula la rezolutia de 1080i, dar am inteles ca rezolutia este cumva emulata(nu este chiar 1080i) si ca jocul arata mult mai bine asa, decat 576i cum am eu acum.

Singurul joc, care are aceasta emulare este GT4 si peste tot se lauda acest lucru, eu sunt doar curios sa aflu o parere a unui coleg de pe forum care chiar a jucat jocul la aceasta "rezolutie".

P.S. am PS2 si se vede foarte bine cu cablu component. Iar cablu RGB nu exista. Exista doar conexiunea RGB prin cablul SCART.

numai cu PS3 poti sa faci emularea.
PS:cablu RGB de exemplu asta

Am si eu nevoie de putin ajutor :vreau sa-mi cumpar o consola PS2 pt un joc care nu cred ca o sa mai apara pe PC.
Spuneti-mi si mie la ce specificatii trebuie sa fiu atent cand o cumpar (de noua o iau).
Stiu ca astea nu-s ca PC-urile dar totusi...vreau sa o pastrez si pe mai tarziu sa pot juca in conditii optime.Ma intereseaza unde se face modding si care chip e mai bun,daca merg jocuri si de pe alte console...tot ce stiti ca ar trebui sa ma intereseze. Daca nu am postat unde trebuie i-mi cer scuze si rog un moderator sa mute postul.

Multumesc anticipat!
