PS4 System Update 1.70 is Live
- Thread starter whitehawk
- Start date
Odd, mine seems quick. Copying an 86MB file took 10 -15 secs. Well that's quick for me anyway

Hold the PS button til it turns off. It'll keep playing.you can but then that will pause whatever you were watching
Edit: it continues playing even if you do it through the PS menu as well. Just tried it.

:/ Spent all that time formatting it, putting the update on, then I turned the PS4 back on to reinstall it and it boots up fine again.
Has me worried though.

At least it's booted, though, so congrats!
Facebook vs USB video capture quality
44.1 vs 48 kHz audio
1.64 vs 4.9 Mbit/sec bitrate
The fine details are blurred out a lot more with the Facebook download.
My Infamous Second Son video uses rock-solid 8mbit bandwith. 64MB for 63secs of footage.
Well I turned off Deep Color, since a bunch of people in this thread were having problems with it, and everything works fine with HDCP now (on the PS3 as well!)

Probably a lot more going on/motion than Child of Eden and that was recorded with 1.62 as well.
If it does it again, make sure you got the 1.70 update. The one at Sony's firmware page is still old. That might be why it didn't work. It said the same thing to me when I got the old one when trying to upgrade my HDD. Killthee posted the url for it: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=110053702&postcount=88

What format is necessary for a USB HDD? Trying to transfer video and my drive is not showing up.
Here it is https://www.dropbox.com/s/zc1te7h8wjcdyag/inFAMOUS Second Son™_20140430120520-001.mkv
[I trimmed last 10 seconds, so the resulting container got switched from MP4 to MKV. Audio/Video codecs are untouched].

exFAT and FAT32 i think is what works.

Hmm, yeah that's what I though. My drive is exFAT and the PS4 still wasn't recognizing it.
First, this update is great. Lots of great features added. Execution of some of them, however, leaves something to be desired.
Couple things..
1. When rendering your final movie in the new Share app, you can't "minimize" it and go do other things. I guess it uses the same chip to do the rendering that it does to run games, etc. It pauses the rendering and doesn't continue until you focus on that app again.
2. Holy hell is the USB transfer slow. This, coupled with the above comment, is going to make Twitch archiving much more appealing than exporting to USB and uploading to YouTube.
EDIT: ..and you can't even minimize that transfer either. I just stopped it at 64mb with still 80minutes to go. Brutal. It essentially makes the ShareFactory app useless with all of its transitions and editing features.. if I have to wait that fucking long to transfer it to a USB stick, I'm never going to use it.

Check to make sure your external HD has only one partition. I tested it and multi-partitions aren't supported.

Am I getting this right....so if I click the Share-button and go into "share" that way, I can tag multiple screenshots to be uploaded to Facebook.
However, when I click Capture Gallery or go to the screenshots directory under your Profile, I cannot do a batch upload, only a single screenshot upload?! Strange move.

Ah, yeah that might have been it. Thanks.
I don't own a Wii U. I owned a PS3 and the DS3's battery life lasted quite a bit longer than the DS4s. I own a 360 and I get a full week from a charge of my eneloops. I also own an Xbox One and again, a full week of gaming(I average 2-3 hours a day either gaming or watching Netflix/Espn/HBO). Are you honestly saying the battery life of the DS4 is anywhere near the level of PS3, 360, or XB1's? As for the Wii U, it has an excuse for the gamepad to be that poor. It has a giant screen that's always on. Now consider the Wii U Pro controller - 80 hours of battery life.
I just recorded a short Infamous vid to export to usb, decent quality when viewing it back on pc.
Does anyone know if its possible to record, say 1 hour of footage without missing anything ?, i understand the vids will be 15 minutes a piece. But can you set it to record continuously for any amount of time(in 15 min chunks), or do you have to hit record every 15 mins ?

You have to hit record every 15 minutes. I think the only way to get around that would be to do a livestream of your video and have it archived at Twitch or Ustream. Those can be any length, I believe.
LOL seriously? I'm glad I stopped it early, then. =\

So weird how the update downloads but then just sits at "preparing to install" instead of just automatically restarting and installing. If I go to sign-in, then it prompts me to restart.

It's highly dependent on the write speed of your USB stick. A 3.0 stick should be very very fast. Many 2.0 sticks had terrible write performance.
Good call - I'm actually not sure about the one I'm using. It's a few years old. Is there a diagnostic tool I can use to find out from the stick itself?

Its good to see those implementations, if theres something buggy or very slow they may fix that with a future update. At least it is what we should expext them to do.
About the DS4, I believe that they will later release a new one with better battery life. DS4 is awesome, its battery life is its only problem imo.

Ok, cheers.
Haha, with my luck, I wouldn't count it out!
Came here to add this, too. Anyone have any real-world proof that the video transfer to a USB 3.0 device from the PS4 is faster than to a USB 2.0 device?

Sure any disk speed utility should work on USB flash drives as well. I use a thing called Blackmagic Disk Speed Test on Mac.
Yes.
I don't but it should be a pretty big difference.
USB 2.0 = max 480 megabits/sec
USB 3.0 = max 5 gigabits/sec
Those are theoretical maximums that you never reach IRL but 3.0 should be roughly 8-9x faster in almost any case.

I thought I read somewhere that you could now upload multiple pictures at once to facebook. Yet, I can't find a way to do this. Any help?

Nice! Does it make a material difference in the volume of voice transmitted?

The best feature yet?
is this for all types of mics (i.e. wireless) or just if mic is plugged into ds4
It does. My friends told me my mic was too low. This helped a lot. Now they hear me clearly.
Well I was using it with my pulse elite plugged in. Im assuming it will either way.
Sounds like a router issue.

That is awsome, a great way to test if your mic is working. Before you'd have to create a new message to someone, talk for a bit and then listen back to see if you can hear anything.
