hi,sorry for noob question,how come the japan ps3 sells cheaper than the asian ps3?
and will there ever be an official ps3 launch here in malaysia?
*


hmm.gif i read somewhere that the reason Japan PS3 is cheaper is because they wan to build up the user base in Japan 1st...becos the games r more expensive in japan n Sony earn the profits from games n not consoles....

official launch in Malaysia - may be a quiet one just like PSP n PS2? sweat.gif unsure.gif

We were also waiting for the official launch in Malaysia, but cannot anymore.

Just last month I asked the staffs at the Sony Wing in KLCC about it, even they don't know about it.

The rumour I heard is that they will launch PS3 in Malaysia together with the new DualShock®3 sometime next year.

Blueray movie can only run on 1080p? or can it be played in 720p?

It can be played with an HD ready 720p TV, which will be converted to 1080i.

Only full HD TV can display at it's native 1080p.

3 hours? That's too long. Remuxing technique shouldn't take that long. What is the duration of the video? I have done it more than 20 times, all ran perfectly fine. I used the program for a 4.3 GB, 100 minutes video, took me less than 2 hours. I have also done it for a 8.2 GB, 143 minutes video, took me less than 3 hours, even that maybe because I also split the output video to two 4 GB MP4 files.

Do you have enough HDD space? The program will create files with the total size equivalent to the original MKV file. So to be save, ensure you have free space at least double the original MKV file. If you doing split, better have 3 times the size.

Or, was the video 1080p? Because as I stated in my post 1080p video is not guaranteed to work. Even if you successfully remuxed to MP4 using GOTSent, the most common case is that you will hear the audio but seeing black screen when played in PS3. But there are still some cases that it did work. These are mostly for high profile h264 AVC.

Which comes to your next question. The level 4.1 and 5.1 in this case is NOT the audio channels. The program will convert the audio to 2 channel AAC anyway because as of the current firmware, PS3 can't play multi-channel audio MP4 yet (I think so, haven't tried since the 2.01 update). The 4.1 / 5.1 here refers to the AVC.h264 main profile. This is the technical part of the codec, no need to know further about that as the program will do it for you. Do not change any settings in GOTSent. Just browse for your MKV file, set the output destination, if the original file is bigger than 4 GB, toggle on "split", and click "convert" and that's it.

Hope that will help.

If not mistaken you can do that through manual connection setting in PS3. Not sure if there's extra steps to do, like setting the router etc.

Never bothered to look because I don't really mind about my PS3's IP, always use automatic.
