PS3 Update to 2.40 & 2.41
Posted by Simon Salvin on 27. Jul 2008 on GamingOnce again I’m quite late with this one, I really should turn on my PS3 more often, in fact I think I only turn it on to do updates???!
Anyway 2.40 came and went, literally went as Sony withdrew the update due to problems with disappearing home screens and inactivation once applied.
So 8th July Version 2.41 appeared to fix these issues.
Here’s my pick of the best features for update 2.41:
Photo
- You can now print images from a playlist that was created under
(Photo). - You can now sort items that are grouped in a folder by month or year using the [Film Date
] or [Film Date
] options.
Music
- You can now use a mini-size control panel while playing music
- You can now play music content encoded in MP3 Surround format.*
*MP3 Surround can only be played in Linear PCM output.
Video
- You can now use the [Frame Noise Reduction] and [Block Noise Reduction] settings for video content that is saved on the hard disk or storage media
- You can now play upscaled video content that is saved on the hard disk or storage media. When the video content is played, it is upscaled automatically to fit the screen size.
- Upscaling of Blu-ray Disc (BDAV) video content is now supported
- For DTS playback on DVD-Video and Blu-ray Disc media, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 for DVD-Video and DTS-ES Matrix for Blu-ray Discs are now supported.*
