will do. but if i am not mistaken its only one firmware and theres no update or announcement ever since.

read that after the ps3 is reset with the lowest resolution, it should work with any pc or monitor right ?

At hdmi 3 channel, is there a menu in your hdtv? (some sort of select pc/hd res)

In pioneer plasma, after you select Input 3, go to menu-> option->hdmi input -> setting Enabled

Hi,  i have one question here.
I have a us/canada set of PS3 slim, and wondering what if i bring this ps3 back home, do i need a voltage converter?
There's a sticker under the ps3 saying that, 110v and 60hz. meaning, i need a converter to 240 v/ 50hz if i bring it back to Malaysia.
but then, i came across this website ( http://boardsus.playstation.com/t5/PlaySta...ge/m-p/26297139 ).
In the first page, it says that there's no need for any converter/transformers, as it's sort of built inside the ps3 itself.
but, since the post was dated back in 2007, this could be valid only for ps3 fat.

any of u guys brought home 110v ps3 slim back to malaysia?
Do u guys use any converter to operate the ps3 itself? thanks

another unrelated question, was kinda confuse,
do ps3 support 3rd party controller? ( logitech, madcatz n stuff. )
thanks, again!
*
ps3 slim have universal power supply... 110v-240v, confirmed.

no stepdown convertor needed imho.

as for 3rd party controllers support, yeah sure do.

Hi guys! Need some help here!

I posted a video of what happened to my PS3 on youtube...Can i post the link here?

Anyway, I'll just try to describe it.

I turn on the PS3, and nothing shows up. It's blank. I tried going into Recovery Menu, going through options 3 to 6, but no success. I then got a working PS3, swapped my HDD into it, and tried to reformat. It worked for the PS3. Then I swapped the HDD back into my PS3, and still, nothing shows up. Not even the option to reformat the HDD.
Please help!
*
sure you can post youtube here

Question regarding to DLC Sharing.

I bought a Marvel vs Capcom 2(MvC2) from a forumer here.
So at 1st I create a new PS3 user, and login into his PSN, and download both the game and the unlock key.
And after download, I switch back to my account to play.
No problem.

And then I deleted the temporary PS3 user as I've already done downloading the game.
And when I start playing, it became trail version back.

I found out the deleting the account cause the DLC hilang.

So is there anyway to delete the account and in the same time not losing the DLC?
*
u can't delete account

dlc is specifically tied to an account per system

Added on April 14, 2010, 12:34 ammaybe GOW3 graphics sucks, gameplay good. perhaps i should try another blueray game like Grandtourismo 5 later when it released

wah seh, sad only i thought BD disc all will run 1080p, after reading forum most ps3 BD games only run 720p. then for fux i get a full HD lcd lol....no use!!!
*
like ffrulz said, the dev optimised the game at said res... for our enjoyment too

if sony forced all dev to come out 1080p games, then we're all complaining stutter frame-rates with their current developments.... (like those in pc when gfx not so power enuf eg crysis)

one thing i hate those games developed well-below native 720p standard, blurred gfx... sigh then the dev blame ps3 not so power-enuf.. isk isk

we hope that next-gen console would make 1080p a minimum requirement for future games

that flicker thing when changed res is normal icon_rolleyes.gif

does anybody know.

FW 3.30 enables flash for our ps3 XD

just to share with you all.
*
yeah.. thx for sharing thumbup.gif

hidden updates inside fw3.30 are as follows:

- Flash updated on ps3 web browser

- Issues with certain region-free Blu-Ray discs have been fixed (does anyone know which title? Plz list them down here)

- A new BD Audio Output setting under Video Settings have been added for optical output (updated 1st page FAQ)

- An option for PC remote play is available
(“You can now select [PC] as an option under [Remote Play Settings] > [Register Device]. When you select this option, you will be able to use the remote play feature to operate your PS3 system from future models of the VAIO PC.)
Will be unveiled at vaio.eu/playstation in May 2010

i want to re-confirm is it true that we cant use proxy service anymore to download psn games to pc then to ps3?

can u try whether it works or not using proxy server?

some ppl said it still works... some don't work (i think due to bad connection as psn tend to dc)

mine is phat ps3,im still holding on to my fw 3.15 don wan to loose my otheros (though im not using it, but kinda sick with sony move to remove it.well,gona hv to update too later,but not now with those current useless update).been using proxy server to connect to psn but since sony blocked it recently,so currently i cant connect to psn.my internet is slow, so just wanna get general idea whether if i can still dl psn game to pc then transfer to ps3 in case i bought game from psn in the future
*
still wanna hang on the OtherOS feature eh?

there are reasons why sony remove it, in the meantime fw 3.30 aldy up.

as for proxy server GUI, i was referring to latest fw3.30 if sony had blocked it or not. If u decide to use it to bypass fw checks, i think sony implemented another system check or block that specific proxies.

So to download psn games from psn store, u still need to login to psn and access to psn store (need system authenticated for the downloads to work).
