PS3 Firmware 2.20 Released

Posted by greg on March 24, 2008

Update: By now you already know what it’s all about…

  • You can now play discs that support Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 (BD-LIVE). You can connect to the Internet while playing discs that support this format so that you can obtain additional features. Features that are available vary depending on the software in use.
  • You can now copy playlists that you create in photo (Photo) and music (Music) to a PSP® system.
  • The way you register (pair) Bluetooth® devices has changed, and you can now register more devices.
  • A [BD Internet Connection] setting has been added under [BD/DVD Settings].
  • An [Audio Output Device] setting has been added under [Remote Play Settings].
  • You can now display an image while editing a playlist.
  • You can now play a music track while editing a playlist.
  • You can now play DivX and WMV files that are 2 GB or larger.
  • You can now display subtitles when playing DivX files.
  • You can now resume playing a DVD from the point where you previously stopped it.
  • A [Mosquito Noise Reduction] option has been added under [AV Settings] in the control panel for standard DVDs.
  • You can now play BD-R version 1.2 (LTH* BD-R) discs.
  • LTH, or low to high, is a recording method that supports organic dye, write-once BD-R media.
  • You can now change some PS3™ system settings during remote play.
  • [Save Target] has been added as an option under [File] in the browse mode menu of the Internet browser. This option lets you save a file that is linked from a Web page, such as an image or video file, or other type of file, to your PS3™ system’s hard disk drive or storage media.
  • The Internet browser now displays some Web pages faster.
  • Using the Internet browser, you can now play a linked video file* as it is being downloaded.
  • Some types of video files cannot be viewed in this manner and must be downloaded completely before playback.

Sadly, no in-game XMB access.


Sony has released PS3 firmware 2.20. Grab it now via System Update. I’ll report back in a few…

The New Update includes:

# The ability to copy PS3 Music and Photo playlists to a PSP system. We introduced the ability to create Music and Photo playlists on the PS3 in firmware update v2.0. Now you can easily export your playlists to your PSP.

# You can now play DivX and WMV format files that are over 2 GB. In addition, you can now display subtitles when viewing DivX files.

# Resume Play – begin playing a DVD or BD disc from the point where you previously stopped it, even if you eject the disc and insert a different movie or game.

Everyone stop complaining. If you want a HUGE update then get a shitbox360 and you’ll get 2 updates a year. So it will seem like you’re getting more. I’ll stick to my frequent updates.

Fuckin bitches.

who’s the bitch here you fuckface, i have both systems and you are a sucker PS3 is NOT better then 360 the games are NOT like 40 GB on PS3 just 7 GB like 360 so whats the big fucking deal??? 360 has in game music and a bigger ram so it remembers when you stopped a movie even 2 or 3 movies it remembers!!
PS3 is just a cheap blu-ray player guys don’t you get the scam Sony played to get blu-ray in the livin room. Fuck Sony!!!!!

2008-03-27 18:16:15

lol i don’t understand the bitchyness of ps3 owners. maybe its cause they got ripped off. the xbox 360 hardware may not be the most reliable but microsoft is losing plenty of money over it so im happy

 
Comment by LastmanOut
2008-03-27 22:10:51

Microsoft loses money every day and every second. If that makes your happy just do a search on any torrent site and you’ll see any Microsoft software you want on there.

If you’re so inclined you could leave you’re computer on 24/7 downloading it and it wouldn’t cost you a cent if you’re not paying the electricity bill. I would bet you’re computer is more stable then your xbox360. Leave a computer running for 24 hours or something no problem, leave an xbox360 running for 24 hours and hope after that it’s not burned to a crisp.

That brings an interesting point up, what’s the longest continuous session of gaming you’ve done on an xbox360? You would think that the longer you play the faster the heatsink and fans would wear out or the board would fry from the heat.

The RAM-Memory of the PS3 and the other console (forgot the name, oh wait it was shitbox 360) are the same.
And I think you forgot that RAM is deleted when there’s no power. OWND dude!

Comment by bobey49
2008-03-27 18:12:57

The 60gb PS3 had an backup ram from the ps2 hardware Emulation I think it was 128 of ram that was to help with the ps3 game If the 512 got jammed up but they dropped it because of the newer ps3 don’t have this capability and it cost to much To produce the 60gb PS3 it very hard information to come by it like well forgotten

This update aint too bad, atleast they support being able to play vids over 2gb and with subtitle support, as well as the resume play which is pretty good. I don’t have a PSP, so couldn’t care less.

Plz don’t complain like little bitches and appreciate what you get sony has already said they will be releasing an update that includes in game XMB and music but you must understand it takes time to develop features that they did not foresee while they were making the system now relax and stop complaining about a useless feature when there are many great features that have been released.

Comment by bobey49
2008-03-25 02:40:38

NO I’m still happy with my ps3 and what Sony

The PS3 and PSP are base on the PSX that never came to the US The PSX was a dvd recorder dvd player that can play PS2 game I think you also can record tv show it had a built in hard drive It was the first Sony system to have the XMB menu setup

Comment by ppp
2008-03-25 04:17:07

Yeah, it was Japan only I think (Wikipedia will know) I really wanted one.
I mean a console that burns discs would be awesome.

Comment by LastmanOut
2008-03-25 13:59:30

Yeah except it costs an arm and a leg to get one on ebay, (think PS3 after launch – $600 plus I’ve seen them for) and from some reports it seems no one can break or change the damn thing. Unable to make it display in english, only in japanese cause it wasn’t released anywhere else because it didn’t sell that well so it was cancelled. The best part of it I think was it’s ability to create dvd’s and to act as a pvr as well.

The PS3 and PSP are using the XMB interface that was first introuduced in the PSX/PS2, that’s all.

Why the hell do people who like the 360 have to go on about its a better system etc? and in all honesty it isnt, thats why microsoft are planning to release another console in a few years time cause they know it cant compete. So what 360 got loads of games whoopeee most are crap lol I know ive got a 360 and ps3 and atm im on dead rising never get sick of that game lol but if it was on ps3 the 360 would be sold. All im saying is at least sony are releasing updates people would soon winj on if they didnt release anything. In my closing comments i would just like to say stop crying on like a baby :) this comment isnt aimed at anyone in particular just to the cry babies in general.

For everyone else have a good day :D

Well, Xbox 360 has the games, and an amazing online community, but, i refuse to pay to play online.
The Wii is a joke, a gamecube with a motion sensitive controller, last gens tech in a new cover.
But the PS3+PSP, will be, when sony finally get there finger out and release HOME, the exact thing that mr billy gates wanted the Xbox 360 to be, the center of my home entertainment experiences, blue ray player, social area, PVR, and look, new harddisk from local store 4x the size of MSs 120GB xbox drive for a third the price.
I am not a fanboy, but sony are at least treating there consumers as adults, and i commend that.

who cares about ingame xmb if it was last gen u wouldnt even get updates so deal with it and stop complaining in game wont come until home is released whenever that comes and people saying the 360 is hd to ITS NOT IT UPSCALES which is the same as a dvd upscales it takes the original resolution and upscales it and if a 360 is so much better than go fuckin by one i did and it was a waste of money in my opinion u play to play online and even thier live fucks up on you and the systems louder than my damn car when i start it up and its running. not to mention it scratches the shit out of your games. i dont understand why people keep givin into microsoft when all they care about is taking the consumers money… I hope apple makes a video game console!

Just updated to 2.20. DivX subtitle works but not with separate .srt file. You must remux the divx and srt files with Sub2DivX. To enable the subtitle, press triangle button while playing back the divx and choose the subtitle option.

Sub2DviX link:

Comment by Hobo
2008-03-25 13:35:00

Another fairly un-exciting update, the Divx file size and subtitle fixes are nice, but I’m more concerned with the random incompatibility of some files when they were created with the same app, using the same codec etc etc, I have all of my movies on my pc as avi files, so when they first made Divx compatible a few updates ago, I was ecstatic, but after trying 20-odd files to have 13 say unsupported data, I wasn’t so happy :/

Comment by pat

http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/converter/. I was using clonedvd mobile, because it has more options and is faster. but it was outputting as avi which won’t play on ps3. had to convert w/ divx converter anyway.

Comment by bobey49
2008-03-27 18:21:18

Yea divX Author really good it like watching tv

I wish they would look at it from a user perspective and say “Hey, this would be really neat, why dont we try to add this”….instead of giving us updates on shit we’d rarely use or even notice.

Oh ya..and maybe release some fucking games. Im sick of this $600 paper weight.

i remember when we started hacking the psp and the only thing the new psp updates had were heightened security. sony is a piece of crap that rather make good updates dont want to lose money. If they did do good updates and provide more I wouldnt have resorted to hacking. They better learn from the psp and make good with ps3 or im donating money to hackers so they hack it even faster.

guys this thing is nvr gonna get hacked
sony did a real good job a preventing that from hapening again
even if it does get hacked that just means that
good ps3 games will nvr be released because evryone
will just be pirating them instead of buying them
and all those people that say that they wont pirate if they hack the ps3
u guys are all lieing
everyone knows that free games is the MAIN
reason why people want it hacked
Sony is doing a good job at updating this
thing just give it time everything good will come out eventually

At this point Sony’s still paranoid about the security of the damn thing, but yeah it’s about time the start rolling out more features then security.

Mooose… for sure, that huge ass shiny black fucker is never gonna get hacked. Sony are assholes. They tightened the security and threw out everything else! Waiting so damn long for a game, and when it comes out it’s fucking short!
And don’t say we can’t bitch, we paid a shit load of money… I have the fucking right to bitch.

So far have we seen anyone or any group prove they can actually break the security system / bypass the security system and even show a legitimate hello world proof-of-concept for this device??

All we’ve seen for this device is smoke and mirror parlor tricks, everyone and your grandpa throwing up videos up on youtube and other sites claiming that a hack is coming or a hello this or that – all BS nothing more.

Till the day you see a legitimate hack hello world proof-of-concept for this device I don’t see what’s the point of using proxy’s or firmware bypass apps – do you see anything anywhere on the internet to indicate that a legit real exploit is coming out???

When ever we get a yes to one of these above then it might be time to get out and walk around, read a book, exercise or play single player non-network to avoid updating. Till then might as well just Shut Up, update the box and play online or stream or whatever else you do with the damn thing.

The list of games coming down the pipe this year for the PS3 at least looks more promising so hopefully it’s a sign of things to come, we’ll get those massively long rpg’s and shooters and all the other types that made give up all those thousands of hours on your PS1/ PS2/ PSP .

I know someone at sony must be watching.

Seriously dudes we need the ability to listen to our own mp3s while playing games like burnout. I just aint the same. I makes playing burnout for the original xbox a more pleasurable experience. I’m sorry dudes but it is what it is.

Considering there are links at the top of this page connecting it to the http://www.psp-hacks.com website; before pandora a new exploit released on that site saw a release of a new firmware sometimes the next day or two.

This site however; doesn’t have that, it only has speculation, rumors and everything else that’s fit to print. It is what it is, at least for now.

I just check some of my XVID files and they work fine on the ps3 60gb with update 2.20. Looks like better Divx wasn’t the only thing they added! If they can add better h264, MKV, and ac3 support I can watch a lot of the new fansubs(shana season 2,Rosario Vampire) Also put in OGM container support as well. I really wish they could add support to use your own hard or external hard drives that would make playback faster but that would definately make ps3 so easy to hack

2008-03-27 03:03:21

I have a 400 gb external hard drive that I use with mine. google “fat32 large hard drive format”. I don’t know if there is a size limit, but I know 400gb can be formatted to use external w/ ps3.

ok… I’d just like to point a few things out that reading through these comments no one has picked up on yet, I do a lill web design so I know what i am on about here… by the looks of things sony has designed there ps3’s os in two parts, the main core of the system and then the features such as remote play internet etc… if you notice sony release the first update which improves the stabillity of the system the main core, then they release a second update the features. This is a realy good idea as it brakes down the coding and is esier to maintain pluss people can work on more than one part, Unfortunitly as the os is in two parts it makes it more difficault to combine the two like playing a game which runs from the main core of the os and using a feature like in game xmb so you have to access both at the same time. Ok we are a bit behind but who cares… look at what our ps3’s can do! they are a lot more stable than the 360 and to be hounest our features are better than the 360 in some respects but we are getting there. Just give sony a chance, or if you like you know what ms’s software track record is…CRAP!

If you are not liking the ps3, fine, sell it.
Just stop fucking complaining.
If you want to continue complaining, do at sony´s official web site.
Here, it won’t change a god damn thing….
These people here at PS3Hakz are FUKING HOSTING AN SITE WITHOUT AS FUKING ASKING ANYTHING FROM YOU! JUST SHOW SOME FUKEN RESPECT AND STOP FLAIMING HERE!

i think the word chill should be used here. not just to the people complaining but the people complaining about the people complaining.

lets look at the big picture here. its a games console. if it gets updated it gets updated. if it doesn’ its still better than what we had 5 years ago. lets make the best of what we’ve got. its a brilliant thing. a cumulation of hundreds of peoples knowledge and expertise jammed into 1 machine that we have the priviledge of being able to have in our houses.

in conclusion. chill. the end

If you’re wearing a blutooth headset and playing COD4, just turn the stereo on and listen to whatever is on your ipod (or however you want to do it). I’ve got a 360 and it’s a little sluggish (just a little) when trying to play music and a game. Here’s what they should do… find a way for the two networks to talk to each other so there can be an all-out war between consoles on whatever online games they have in common. AND what!

Right on Stepnage, maybe the first intelligent conclusion in this entire form. Because of the ps3 multi core design it’s os dedicates certain processes to the cores, that is the function of the main cpu, it divides the work to the spe’s as wheel as acting like a general use processor, the real power processing is in the spe’s. The challenge of the in game xmb is, you are already in a game so the 6 spes in most cases are already doing something and the 7th spe is handling the system functions like security, services, network services, os IO as well as other things. So in result the whole system is in use and if you were to then transition to the xmb some of the game process would have to be loaded off of the spes and the main cpu or they could be ran in parallel witch in this case is the more likely result, in conclusion the problem standing is a smooth transition with no loss of data, and no or miniscule load times. The ps3 system has a monster under the hood it just needs to be harnessed with good programming.

Hi there thanks for your comment, As I said in my earlier poast, it will take time but when it’s done it will be amaizing but till then we just have to wait. I just wish more people in this forum would see this and quit bitching about what they havent got and start realizing what they have got. I say if they know how to program then get off their fat ass and go do it. But thanks for your comment.

Mabye we are looking at this the wrong way. Mabye instead of directly messing with the firmware on the console… it would be possible to modify the update data, changing what we need…then burning it to an ISO/DISC. That way, instead of trying to change the firmware… we load up a ‘Future’ version of the xmb with modified features… then we can run it from there…sort of like emulating firmwares on the PSP…but not actualy changing it. The only downside may be that less PS3 ram is available… but it could be programmed to overwrite the original xmb data….just an idea.

how hard would it be to hack the sixaxis controller?,you can write unasigned code for computers right? its the most hackable thin. then use it to run hombrew on ur pc. you can hook your pc and ps3 to the same tv it would be just like the ps3 was hacked if we could only use the controller with other programs, it seems like it can be done with bluetooth computers, right?

Yes the controller does work but with a usb cable though, I got mine to work under windows xp lke in the demo, you can download the drivers from the downloads section of this web site, I did however runn in to a few compatabillity isues with windows vista, sometimes it worked then it diddn’t. When you have it all set up it shoule work like a normal game pad for windows and depending on the emulator it will be under controll options.
