Support NeoGAF

[Uno Venova]

Hope XB1 adds DLNA and media playback so Sony can get going.

 

[Dead Prince]

Microsoft need to go harder just for Sony to do more lol

 

[Vashetti]

My guess is that this isn't as soon as people think. Maybe a month.

Didn't they take a long time to release that major update with Sharefactory? I feel like it was weeks after announcement by the time it showed up

Yeah that ShareFactory update took forever and turned out to be a major disappointment. The best feature of that update was the option to dim the lightbar and making the PS Store snappier.

 

[zychi]

Dlna? Plex app? Psnow "july release"?

Longer battery life in controllers?

 

[dreamer3kx]

3d bluray support, so update is for maybe four people, terrible, wheres the stability in that?

 

[Neuromancer]

Well you guys bitched enough about it, lol

 

[Harlock]

3D blu-ray is a true last gen feature.

 

[ethomaz]

this is nice-been wanting that 3D Blu ray support for a minute-I just hope the disc load times are faster than ps3. ain't nobody got time for dat!

It is faster than PS3 in load speeds.

 

[Vashetti]

3D blu-ray is a true last gen feature.

Speak for yourself.

3D Blu-ray in the home is awesome. Much better experience than in the cinema.

 

[VanWinkle]

I just... why? I mean, it needs to be added, but an update just for that feature alone? Right after they just released an update?

I mean, it's good news. There was always going to be feature parity at some point (not there yet of course). But I mean, they had to know that this would look like a reactionary move right?

Sony really baffles me with their firmware updates. Nintendo and Microsoft seem to be much better about actually doing things with their updates and not seemingly "reacting" to someone elses update. Feels odd saying that givne that you would have thought last year before PS4 came out that it would be #1 for adding new features to the firmware in a timely manner.

Nintendo takes longer than Sony between significant updates.

 

[witness]

Finally! Glad both consoles will have it now.

 

[EvB]

3D is all very well, but Sony haven't put me at ease as to the stability of the machine.

 

[Exploratory]

Hahaha you Xboners are losing features to hold over us! One by one we close the gap, watch your backs!

Damn. No shame.

 

[Metalingus5150]

I have a feeling neither console will get DLNA or media playback like they want.
o.o

 

[OneUh8]

oh man rofl. That's too obvious this is only happening because MS got it coming. Wonder if they have been sitting on this or not.

 

[Live Free or Die]

Well you guys bitched enough about it, lol

True. People complained there wasn't 3D Blu-Ray support, and now Sony is adding it and they're complaining it's being added. :/

 

[bananafactory]

Speak for yourself.

I agree. The clarity of the image is astounding and it doesn't seem as dim, either.

[shem935]

Where is my stability? I demand it!

 

[Linconan]

Awesome
My Hmz-t1 and 3Dtv and 3D Collection, is ready!

 

[ethomaz]

3d bluray support, so update is for maybe four people, terrible, wheres the stability in that?

It is 11st most requested feature in PS.Blog Share with 3,790 votes... if you remove the ideias that will never go live then it is the 8th.

[MonkeyMan29]

Uhh..thanks? Still waiting for DLNA/External Media support and I can finally pack up my 360. The only thing I use it for is to watch ripped videos from my external drive.

Its coming I know, but I do wish Sony would roll out features a bit quicker. PS4 does gaming extremely well...but media? Ehhh...

Yeah they totally forgot that everyone well at least a bunch are sleeping le sigh...

 

[Vashetti]

I agree. The clarity of the image is astounding and it doesn't seem as dim, either.

Shouldn't we be getting better audio from 3D Blu-ray too?

If I remember correctly, PS3 never gave us the highest quality audio on 3D Blu because of bandwidth/hardware issues?

 

[atomsk]

considering my 80gb fat PS3 randomly decides it does not like to play some blu-rays without shitting itself (never had a problem with games, only movies) this means I can finally watch that copy of Jurassic Park 3D I bought last year.

 

[Gouty]

Let's hope one of these two losers implements DLNA in the near future so their competition will get a fucking clue.

Seriously, you're both incompetent.

 

[VanWinkle]

Wait, why are people joking so much about the stability thing? Isn't it good that we have an update for the first time in three months that isn't about stability?

 

[Azure Dream]

True. People complained there wasn't 3D Blu-Ray support, and now Sony is adding it and they're complaining it's being added. :/

I think people are complaining about the fact that software updates were released just a day or two apart, when they could've been released together as a single update.

I don't think people are complaining about getting more features.

 

[Handy Fake]

3D blu-ray is a true last gen feature.

 

[Orca]

Did they really use the '#4thePlayers' hashtag for a firmware announcement adding 3D Blu Ray support?

 

[EvB]

Let's hope one of these two losers implements DLNA in the near future so their competition will get a fucking clue.

Xbox one does support DLNA as a digital media renderer.

 

[Acorn]

Give me my dlna damnit.

Yep. Home quality is far superior and I love it.

You dont have a comfy couch or smoke a joint and have a few drinks in a theater either lol.

Dim the lights, crank the surround, smoke a doob, and fire up Judge Dredd 3-D...good times

 

[Handy Fake]

[Kabuki Waq]

Finally. Ps3 can retire now

 

[The Real Napsta]

Hey Sony, can I have ownership of my games back yet?

#physicalmasterrace

 

[Downhome]

This is amazing news for me. Now I just need a remote and the PS4 will be my primary media player and not my PS3. I love 3D at home way more than even in theaters. I mean, yeah, here is my collection thus far just of my 3D titles. Most are pictured here, I think I, Robot is set aside right now and then the ones in other box sets like Creature from the Black Lagoon aren't shown here. I have around 70 in total...

 

[shem935]

Did they really use the '#4theblurayPlayers' hashtag for a firmware announcement adding 3D Blu Ray support?

Fixed that for them.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

This is in no way to counteract MS' recent announcement, lol

And wow, a MAJOR feature coming in a .5 update.

I'd hardly call 3D Blu-ray playback a MAJOR feature. Moderate at best, minor in reality.

 

[Quasar]

Let's hope one of these two losers implements DLNA in the near future so their competition will get a fucking clue.

Seriously, you're both incompetent.

I'd hope they offer something better than that POS that is DLNA.

haha

 

[OccamsLightsaber]

Yeah that ShareFactory update took forever and turned out to be a major disappointment. The best feature of that update was the option to dim the lightbar and making the PS Store snappier.

Nobody even knew they were working on it.

 

[Gouty]

Xbox one does support DLNA as a digital media renderer.

I dont know what that means but I do know that I can stream music from my ancient PC to my PS3 and 360, but that I can't to the PS4 and Xbox One.

 

[Quasar]

Wow. I didn't even know there was that many 3D discs in existence.

 

[EvB]

I dont know what that means but I do know that I can stream music from my ancient PC to my PS3 and 360, but that I can't to the PS4 and Xbox One.

You can on Xbox one. I actually stream things directly from my NAS to my Xbox One.

It doesn't have a browser though, so I browse my NAS using a generic DLNA app for iPhone and then the Xbox plays it.

 

[shem935]

Wow. I didn't even know there was that many 3D discs in existence.

Aren't all discs in existence 3d? How do you own a 2d disc? Was it printed on paper?

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Good news. Always nice to have another option.

 

[EatinOlives]

I don't have a 3D TV or any 3D BluRays or have any desire to watch 3D movies at home (or even at the theater for that matter).

But YAY! Sony's finally adding a feature in one of its updates! This is great and sad at the same time.

 

[Gouty]

You can on Xbox one. I actually stream things directly from my NAS to my Xbox One.

On XP? Yes, that old.

 

[manual4]

I dont know what that means but I do know that I can stream music from my ancient PC to my PS3 and 360, but that I can't to the PS4 and Xbox One.

using playto you can stream music to the xbox one, but can only manage que on computer
