So they are not using anything from the arm to encode? I thought they had dedicated encoding hardware on the mainboard?

They do, but the formats are different between stored on the encrypted hdd and exported to non encrypted usb.


Which format do they use? Which encryption do they use on the hdd? So they aren't using the dedicated hardware for USB copy? Which codec does the arm-companion-chip use and which is used on USB?

Exported video is H.264 AAC, though the re-encode shouldnt slow down the transfers that much, theres speed loss from moving from encrypted to non encrypted and from handling the video/audio transfer, for example I get a solid 22mb/s on transfers to my usb3.0 external hdd, so im guessing its an issue with usb2.0, i would probably get 30mb/s+ on usb3.0 if the ps4 didnt use an encrypted drive.

I wonder which part is handled by ARM and which by the jaguar cores. I would've expected that en-/de-crypt is also handled by dedicated chips so it doesn't slow down file operations. Especially when stuff is done in the background so the main cores don't have to bother with this stuff.

All them Share options put Miiverse to shame! xD


In theory, yes.  I don't think it will even come close in practice, though.


Wynaut? :O

Final Change Log.

Not bad but I was hoping for the ability to view trophies offline. I don't like to constantly be online unless I'm playing an online game.

The UI is faster now... crazy no? Way faster... it was already fast but now it is close to instantaneous... PS Store way faster too.

a nice big set of features. automatica pre-download is my favorite but i'll be happy to watch other peoples streams in HD too.

lol at the expanded voice commands too. the most important feature of MS's reveal is the 10th item on a sony's patch notes.

I just used the voice commands the first time last week... well after that didn't use it anymore.
