Does it add Vita "Not Doomed" transfer functionality?

I had some random crashes and no-sound while playing Rayman with 4.10
I hope it fixes that.

I like how the European PlayStation sites are on top of things like this. I'll check there from now on.

Today both the Xbox and PS3 received updates and Khronos announced the release of OpenMAX IL 1.2 Provisional Specification

Both the PS3 and Xbox may have received Openmax code for Codecs and both would receive updates to those Openmax routines from IBM at the same time (AMR WB+ Decoder\Encoder, Extended WMA and AMR formats, VC1 Video Decoder\Encoder, VP8 Video Decoder\Encoder).

Both the Xbox and PS3 received minor updates today. As in the past a wait till the standard is published before updating the firmware even though these standards are developed with input from Sony and others, Sony may have had a finished/final version for weeks.

Gstreamer 1.0 had changes to make integrating it with Openmax (GST-OpenMax) easier except for Zero Copy. This Openmax 1.2 specification has changes that might make it easier to integrate Gstreamer with Openmax, in particular...memory management and possibly Zero copy. Video of integrating Gstreamer with OpenMax & interview with Wm Taymans on Gstreamer 1.0

OpenMAX IL is a royalty-free, cross-platform C-language API for integration of multimedia components into media frameworks to simplify deployment of audio/video encoders/decoders, camera control, and audio, video and image processing algorithms across diverse platforms. OpenMAX IL 1.2 is a backward compatible upgrade that includes dynamic buffer allocation, improved media graph management, in-band signaling, enhanced audio video synchronization, a wider range of standard components and enhanced camera control capabilities together with many other improvements and clarifications to increase interoperability between media processing components.

Some of the upgrades to the Openmax standard will apply to Real Time Communication (? Spring) and Augmented Reality (September target date).

The new OpenMAX IL 1.2 specification also widens the number of standard components to include audio and video technologies such as:

• 3D Audio Mixers;
• AMR WB+ Decoder\Encoder;
• Extended WMA and AMR formats;
• VC1 Video Decoder\Encoder;
• VP8 Video Decoder\Encoder;
• NAL Format support.

The OpenMAX IL 1.2 camera component is also updated with the following advanced capabilities:

• Enhanced Focus Range, Region and Status support;
• Field of View controls;
• Flash status reporting;
• ND Filter support;
• Assistant Light Control support;
• Flicker Rejection support;
• Histogram information;
• Sharpness control;
• Ability to synchronize shutter opening and closing events with audio playback.

Are these icons new for the 4.XX FW?

 

[Diablos]

Oh, it gets rid of that bug? The one where it keeps the install file? Totally installing.

If it's a game that's playable on the PSP or Vita, it's not supposed to delete the install file automatically.
