Just some excerpts:
if we did a normal bilinear upconversion, then the picture quality would just be the same as what is normally done by TVs and computers. Since we had the Cell, we thought we had to do better than that....
We have gotten feedback from them regarding several failure patters for upconverting, but we are getting closer to the goal. I think we can improve another 30 to 40%.
Question:
Linking to games, the 360 has a feature to allow music in the HDD and network to be played back as game BGM.
Kanehide:
PS3 already has such function in the system software. It is up to the game developers to use the function. Same goes for pictures and videos.
Question:
From that point of view, how about playback of WMV and Divx?
Kanehide:
The problem with those formats are that they are not industry standards like "mpeg-4", but format that is locked in by various corporations.
But I understand the demand (laugh).
Wake on LAN is coming?!Question:
The biggest problem with the use of remote play right now is that the PS3 has to remain turned on when you leave the house. Is there a solution to this?
Kanehide:
Wait and see (laugh).
Confirmed by Cheesemeister.Nothing yet comes close to the load that Folding@Home applies. And I can see the possiblity of a fanless PS3 in the future, just like there was for the
PS2.
