does anyone know a faster program then mkv2vob for converting mkv files to watch anime on ps3? I find mkv2vob very slow in converting HD anime files, so if you guys know a faster video converter program, please let know. Thanks.

Firmware 2.20, Mar 25, 2008, Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 support, DivX subtitles, BD-R version 1.2 discs
PIP support is mandatory since Bluray profile 1.1. i personally dont have any pip-featured bd movies atm to test it for you.

you shouldve asked in this thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/895616/+1080  smile.gif

There are reports that Firmware 2.6 is actually bricking PS3s at the moment.... which is weird because not one on this board has complaint about it yet.

But if those reports are cited to be true, your PS3 system could be bricked. Do a factory reset first by holding down the power button right up to 10 seconds.

i have no problems. perhaps the ones that are bricking are the infamous 60GB PS3. they always like to brick from YOD to god knows what else.

They're called refurb lens. All blu-ray lens are manufactured in its highest quality possible(sure there are defects), but refurbed PS3s which has worn out lens will often be changed onto new systems without local warranty. The new lens then goes to the technicians, who will then charge for your "new" PS3 when the lens is dead.

Very common trick.

you mean refurbished lens. that a very cheap trick. better to buy from sony or trusted seller like Alex or Nelson then to buy from those conman shops.

Guys, just wanted to ask. I was playing LBP just now when it suddenly switch off by itself and there's red light keep on blinking. When I tried to switch it off and on again, it still blink and 3 beep. Is there something wrong with the PS3?
