Firmware 2.5, idag

Idag (amerikansk tid) kommer den nya uppdateringen det har pratats om mycket, Firmware 2.5. Den officiella beskrivningen är som följer.

Improved Official Bluetooth Headset wireless headset support, including an on-screen indicator that shows volume, battery charge, and mute functions.

Bluetooth Headset  Wireless headset High Quality (HQ) mode, which utilises advanced wireless technologies and the headset’s dual-microphone design to enable clear and wide-band wireless voice communication with PS3 system.

An in-game screenshot capture tool – titles that support the feature will be announced in the future.

PS3 Trophies user interface enhancement – When players acquire a Trophy, the in-game notification will now include the specific Trophy icon created by the developer, while more intuitive options for comparing Trophies with friends have been added, including an icon to represent each Trophy level.

Video – Video scene search functionality will provide thumbnails to help you find a particular scene in a video more easily.

Information Board – The Information Board will be able to include direct links to PlayStation Store, making it easier for PS3 owners to download content that they read about on the Information Board.

Power save – PS3 owners will have the option to automatically shut-off their console or controllers after pre-selected periods of inactivity.

Flash 9 content becomes supported on the Internet Browser.

Den absolut trevligaste funktionen med nya Firmware 2.5 måste vara screenshot funktionen som gör att man kan ta snapshots när man spelar. Bra att se att Flash komponenterna uppdateras. Jag är väl iof en av dom som hellre skulle se en helt ny webbläsare i XMB.
