Sony expects to have an update for PS3 later this month that will add support for the next generation of Blu-ray playback features. 'Profile 1.1' is the newfangled name given to a new standard of Blu-ray playback which allows for a range of new features. These include picture-in-picture playback (so you could have a director talking in one window with the film running in another), support for downloadable content and much more. Sony's latest (and more expensive) Blu-ray players already support Profile 1.1 features, and according to a Sony rep, speaking at recent press conference, the PS3 is likely to receive a firmware update that will add Profile 1.1 support later this month, reports The Digital Bits. So there's STILL no reason to buy a dedicated Blu-ray player over PS3. source: CVG |
