Sony's PlayStation 3 may be getting an update to fix the currently problematic 1080p at 24fps, component out, and the ability to upscale DVDs to 1080p.
HDMI 1.3 still needs some work
HDMI 1.3 still needs some work
According to a translated Impress interview of Sony PS3 A/V developers, the PS3 is on target for an update to add better software SACD support (better sound quality and wider dynamic range), user-selectable internal YCrCb image processing, 1080p/24 support for films (for crisper, more realistic Blu-ray film playback), and perhaps most importantly, the ability to play back standard-definition DVDs at 1080p HD resolution.
Although the PS3 includes HDMI 1.3, which supposedly supports 1080p/24, the technology is still unstable. This upcoming update should address these problems
that's sound sweet even though I have not had any problems with my TV and PS3 running 1080p res, but love it because it will upscale dvds to that res also. Good find Dash.
