1.1 upgrade is a nice present, but come on Sony, what we really wanted for Xmas is DTS-MA decoding! For New Years then, hmmm, hmmm??

What I want to know is why the ps3 still won't pillarbox my fullscreen dvds. Is it that hard to do? I mean they already do it for old ps2 games that are fullscreen. I would use the pillarbox setting on my tv, but its an old one and it won't allow me to change the viewing format when using component.

Danol?
edited to add: That was in response to a poster jabbering on about some nonsensical things much in the style of Danol, but with much more punctuation whose posts in this thread (and in the HD DVD thread) have now been deleted. Apologies for delaying your continuing browse through this thread. Move along.

1.1 is live, it says in the intro on their web page about the update, as is Divx playback. Woohoo!

Dammit, a bunch of you guys beat me to it. I was very pleasantly surprised that I was able to download the update last night. Bring on the 1.1 discs BDA and I will buy more next year than I did this year!

The link is under the section "Update data download procedure" under number 2 (the word "here"). When you move the cursor over the link, look at the status bar to check the name of the directory the file is in. The file is always called "PS3UPDAT.PUP" but the directory name changes based on the version. After /image and /us you'll see the date for the file as the beginning of the directory name. The new version is 2007_1218 so you know the new file is up.
Edit: changed to reflect the overhauled website with new link.

How long before an update rolls through for the BDP1 and BDP-300? I kid, I kid.
