Ps3 Hacked(Again)

[Wile E]

Probably the only country with laws exploitable to their cause.

 

[DaMulta]

Did you see Wile OtherOS will return with it

Also I just read that they are working on NTFS USB drive support lol.....

hrm. well one thing is for sure. i am not paying anyone for a mod chip/stick. i will wait until this can be had for free.

I want another platform flag on my pirate ship.

That right there is enough for me. I don't really care about game back ups.

same. tbh, i don't pirate games any more. i just want this for mkv,ntfs,otheros and some neat homebrew apps.

Out of curiosity, what content exactly are we missing out on without MKV support? I don't know much about digital video containers and what not, but isn't MKV what people use for Bluray and DVD rips that they host in Torrents? And unless everyone suddenly became foreign film addicts, the only other type of film I can think of using subtitles is Japanese cartoons (anime or whatever) of which 99% of is pirated too. Correct me if I am wrong by all means, but it seems like the vast majority of people wanting MKV support want it to support their film piracy.

I also find it it funny that people who are interested in this 'hack' don't want to pay for it either and would rather wait till some other group 'hacks' their 'hack' so they can get it for free too. Vicious circle of piracy

depending on circumstances, its not illegal to have MKV files. MKV is the superior codec format atm, allowing styled subtitles, files over 4GB, DTS-HD audio, multiple audio, video and subtitle streams...

yeah, pirates use it. cause its the best... so why the hell cant home users use it too? I've ripped my entire DVD and BR collection to MKV for easier watching, if i had a PS3 i'd be narky it wasnt compatible with MKV.

 

[theonedub]

So its the superior container, but aside from the 1% of users who will bother to make rips of their BD and DVD collections, there isn't any other legal content that is only delivered in that format- is there?

I never said or even hinted that it would be illegal to have MKVs, its just seems to me that the majority of the people whining about not having the support are those who are trying to use their stolen content.

I'll get off the soapbox though, I just can't stand thieves at all.

just because there is no legal content yet does not mean it should not be used...if you own a bluray collection like me, and you'd rather not scratch up your discs which cost $40 a pop, then you want MKV. simple as that. no other container can handle it. and if you are in the business of delivering digital content mkv really is the container of choice because it allows for the greatest flexibility.

 

[theonedub]

I own quite a few Bluray discs, and as I mentioned earlier they are nearly impossible to scratch like DVDs or CDs. If you have an ounce of sense they will not be destroyed- yes even if you have children or destructive pets. I hear that line and I wonder what the heck you guys are doing with your discs? You guys throw the cases away right after you buy them or what?

I don't know about people in the business of digital delivery using MKV, I personally have not seen a company release content like that. I imagine there is an obvious reason for that, no? It would seem as though if you want to stay in the business of digital delivery you should avoid MKV

Should also add that @ $40/movie you better be buying box sets, cause if those are single movies... shame on you.

no. since i was 6 i have been making backups of all my digital content. maybe i am OCD, or maybe i am just smart.

they should avoid mkv if they want to deal with the legal hassle and expense of proprietary licensing.

 

[theonedub]

If physical damage is the only reason you are backing up your Blurays; its not OCD and its not being smart, its wasting your time.

I dont know if you saw it from my other post, so ill repost it:

you say it is wasting my time, i say it is smart. if you don't like it then don't do it but don't tell me i am wasting my time.

you're kidding right? when blu-rays first came out they were $40 for the best titles using the most advanced A/V codecs. and why do you care how much i pay for movies?

 

[theonedub]

Ohhh you were saying you were smart, it read like you didn't know if it was OCD or being smart. I just offered up my opinion. I mean backups are for replacing the original should it be lost or destroyed, if the original has a very small likely hood of being destroyed, then yeah its a waste of time- but to each their own.

You are right, they were expensive back then, but now they are nearly as cheap as DVDs. So unless you stopped buying new releases, some of them I would hope were cheaper than $40. Its not that I care how much you paid, it'd just be dumb to pay that much for movies now.

just because they downloaded it doesnt mean its illegal, either.

anime is legal to download before its licenced in your country, for example.

 

[theonedub]

Interesting, I did not know that.

Seems kind of crummy still to the people who made them, but I guess you have to leave that up to the difference between what is legal and what is ethical.

 

[Mussels]

Interesting, I did not know that.

its also legal to have a backup copy of your movies, although its illegal to break the security to do so - one loophole there is to download copies of movies you already own.

just because people download it, doesnt mean they're thieves - surely there are many, many who ARE, but its not all of them, not by a long shot.

 

[theonedub]

^ yup, aware of that. Don't get me wrong, I know there are people who are legit, but they are an extreme minority.

Excellent news!

FTA: Buy an AT90USBKEY or Teensy board now and we'll have good news soon

The AT90USBKEY appears to be a little more expensive than the teensy board which can be had for around $20 from pjrc.

I don't know if people should get the teensy++ or the regular teensy. My guess would be the teensy++ because it also has an AT90USB chip (like the AT90USBKEY) as opposed to the older ATMEGA32 in the regular teensy. Also the teensy++ is only $6 more.

Either way I should mention that both are borderline obsolete. It's nice to see something obsolete suddenly becoming so useful!

EDIT:
Just so everyone knows-- Australia (also known as the Empire from Star Wars) is delaying the injunction hearing about the sale status of the PSJailbreak. I had something else to say but the Classification Board thought my use of the word "impish" would arouse pedophiles.

 

[streetfighter 2]

It was confirmed today that the board to go with is in fact the teensy++:
http://www.pjrc.com/store/teensypp.html

Note: If you're ordering one realize now that pjrc is not a large company and it remains to be seen if they can fulfill orders from the ridiculous horde of pirates and scallywags now descending on them.

or just wait for the free version to be online...

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "free version". You are aware that this thing isn't just a jump drive right? Some unique hardware will be required.

The PSJailbreak itself uses an ATMega chip which emulates several USB devices. This is very much different from how a standard USB jump drive works. The PSJailbreak is more akin to a microcontroller.

Though the code for the thing will be free, you will still need an AT90USB chip and circuit board to flash it and run it.
