   *1 BD-J format disc is not supported.
    *2 BD discs recorded with BDMV format are not supported.

I think you are reading that wrong.  I think that note is related to the "mosquito noise reduction" not being supported for BDMV on BD-R

I have the PS3 update from March 13,2008 (Version 2.17) and all my BDMV discs work (including one made with Cyberlink Power Producer 5 - as a test - all the rest are made with DVDit Pro HD)

What is "mosquito noise reduction" anyway?

A way to smooth out compression artifacts.
Usually makes the picture softer too.


"-- PS3 system's Internet browser will be enhanced: Video files directly
       linked from a Web page will be able to be streamed, and the browser's
       view speed will be improved."

I sure as hell hope that means Flash 9 videos and Quicktime movies
will work.

I see the new 2.20 firmware is out for the PS3.  Has anyone installed it?   Do the BDMV disc still play????????????

Thanks for clueing me in - didn't think Sony would release the new 2.2 this soon - last update was only two weeks ago - I just installed it and the DVDitPro HD blu-ray discs play fine - seems to be less of a delay in booting up as well as going from main menu to submenu. I always hold my breath when the newest PS3 updates come out figuring "this will be the one" that makes our BD-R(E) discs unplayable on the system.

the release just a few weeks ago was a bug fix and update
for a game.
