DjShadow: how does the divx playback feature actually work?
at the moment I'm using media sharing to watch videos using my PS3, before I had an xbox 1 with a mod chip using XBMC, would just browse the directories on my PC for the video files and just playback that way.
DjShadow: Have downloaded the new update to my PS3 and I'll say I'm very impressed! The unit now recognises my DVD-R discs that have DVD video burned on them. I gave WMP11 another try as media server and had no problems this time streaming video, even the picture qual is better, before hand I would get corrupted video error on every file.
I'm copying a xvid file across the network at the moment to see how that goes
gazza27: I don't mean to start any flame wars, but the Xbox 360 got DivX with it's last update.
gazza27: I only said that because this is no evidence that "This is ... yet another reason why PS3 was the best choice for our home entertainment system".
Sorry to change topics a bit, but what are the features of the PS3 that make it worth the price? I have a 360 and want to get a PS3 as well but I highly dislike JRPG's, the only games I'd buy would be MGS4 and... well that's it I think, I didn't like original Killzone but I could get K2 as well... what other good games are coming out in 08? And what advantages would the PS3 offer that the 360 can't currently provide? I would like the Blu-Ray player, but for the price I want more than just that.
Most cross-platform titles so far have looked and played worse or equal on PS3 for $10 more so far, but I assume this will change when developers harness the potential of Blu-Ray?
