Im still a little confused about this as well.. its like only specific type of MKV files now started to work.. for example ( gundam seed destiny MKV file :P now works perfectly while it used to never work) on the other hand Valkyria chronicles anime also MKV but still dosent work

Another thing from PSforums:

This was something small that I noticed. If you have the sparkling wave set and you move your controller, the sparkles will scatter. I tried swinging my controller left and right and the sparkles would sometimes scatter or move in the same direction. Just thought i'd let you guys know since its pretty cool.

I noticed that in the Network Settings section you can now perform the Test Connection option and it will report your Upload and Download speeds. Not necessarily important, but it's an undocumented feature that I noticed.

You can also re-mux/change the file into a different format, more easier and less annoying.

I also noticed that if you scroll down a long list of icons in the XMB, a scroll bar appears on the left side with a notch that moves up or down, showing where you are in the list.

Oh nice, copy and paste. I liked the feature in browser, messages does help. Screen captures sweet too. Thanks for this. SONY should hire a new marketing team. Like, straight from University. Gives people jobs and gives us a better console :|

I just loaded the 3.0 firmware update and it still has the irritating plug-in request when using the browser for no good reason.:evil:

You thing that people dont realize is that Sony changed the friends list because there going to revamp it so it looks a bit like this

Keep in mind the icons on the bottom only appear when you press X on your friend. (I added the friends icon; so we can see the friends of our friends)

Get mkv2vob. It has the features necessary for subtitle conversion and it's pretty much the best .mkv format converter (assuming that your files are mkv) available.
