Lmao
It's like he ain't trying to hide the blatant stanning he's doing in this thread.
I don't know about anyone else but I have my options set to quick and I just tap the button once and im done taking a screen shot. Is MS gonna make it even easier than that? I need to see this lol

Music is media. But no, you can't play videos, just music in this first iteration.
Red all the way!So, are you guys going to keep the blue background (if you dont install a theme). If not, what color are you going to change too? I am thinking Gold, or Grey.
(Yes these are real and indicate when the new colors look like)

Was BruiserBear always this much of a fanboy? I don't feel like he used to be.

There are themes? How did I overlook that? I wish there was a green. I might just go with a theme. PEACE.
Same here. I use this memory trick to insta-identify if a post is serious/troll/pro/anti by their avatars and I had him memorized as pretty reasonable.
Ever since Sony's been winning, though, he's gone completely off the reservation.

They all look cool. Maybe stick with blue for a little and go with gold.

This would make me so happy. No as happy as I would be if you could do it with spotify instead but still, so so happy.
Ok cool. I was a tad confused due to all of these pics popping up. I wish green was more "green" though...looking forward to the update!

True but what he says isn't that unbelievable considering MS runs circles around Sony in this department. If they're working on something for screenshots you can pretty much assume it'll have more functionality than the PS4's 'hold a button and save to your HDD'.

Huh, the screenshot function does a lot more than that...

What are people expecting the XB1 screen-shot function to do when it launches to justify the long wait?

Maybe the green was left out on purpose?
Nitpicking but why didn't they include the system of the PS3 with monthly gradual changes etc.
They have to surpass the PS3 OS or at least achieve parity!nhlducks35

1080P PNGs that are instantly uploadable to Minus.com
He's been like that for some time now. In the beginning I thought he might have given his account to someone else.

To do it right, screenshots will be automatically uploaded to their servers and shared on your activity feed with friends.
That's funny because that happened with me as well. After some time of reading his posts, I started to scratch my head because he used to be on my "at least tolerable" list. I was like "did somebody make a similar name and avatar?" Nope.
On topic. It's about time Sony really. I have a feeling this will be hitting at the end of this month. Just a hunch.
Alright, so it's not just me. I was going to say it's tough to draw a bead on him now. It's so odd.

Did I miss a memo or something regarding comedy post day?
All you have to do on PS4 is hit the share button, take screenshot, choose Facebook or Twitter (I upload to FB with privacy settings as "Only Me" so nobody on my FB friends list sees it but I can still share it online) and it will upload and be shared on your activity feed with friends.
Takes about 10 seconds to do what you describe as the right way to do it.

I don't understand why you would want automatic uploads of screenshots. I mean, I think both systems should give you the option to do so, but I would never have it turned on. You know how many shitty screenshots I take before getting the 'right' one I want to share? XD I don't want every shot I take to be shared, and I really doubt most people do either.

someone pls correct me if im talking from my ass but i dont think this is correct. in my experience your friends can't see videos or screenshots on your activity feed unless they are friends with you on facebook.
that or its bugged as my psn friends have said they can't see my screens or videos if i set it to only me.

Yeah I remember people by their avatar's and I remember bruiser bear to be someone with intelligent opinions. But now there's a huge bias against Sony
I'm sure you get this all the time but it was very difficult not to avatar quote you. So very damn difficult.
This is a great update, can't wait to use gameshare with friends and family.
don't care about pause/resume, but is there any way Sony can have physical copies installed on the HD???
Don't want to swap disk but I also want to trade in games (so not going for digital unless its for games I know I will replay).

Hope this hits soon. I'm really getting sick of the goddamn blue background.

Chalk another vote for:
downloads pause/resume
appear offline
Other than that I don't mind the features (or lack of) on the OS as long as it lets me launch games and blurays.
Now the whole music from USB thing, I'm sure sony learned their lesson (in proper Japanese fashion) about how the vaious ways the PS3 was hacked and are being overly cautious in the ways they will allow external data to go into the PS4. Namely, I don't think they'll let you put your own files anywhere on the system drive except for tightly controlled channels (restoring a backup and/or loading an update from external devices is controlled via cryptographic signing). So yeah if they are not going to let you put files inside the PS4, they better get working on letting you source them from your other network devices (DNLA et al).

Yeah, always been that way.
Usually he's better at concealing it by posting positive stuff here and there about the PS4 as sort of guise. He's kind of off the rails at the moment.

It seems more likely that because Music Unlimited actually generates revenue, the MU team could actually afford to hire programmers to make the app for it, whereas the OS team doesn't generate money quite so directly, so they probably have a comparatively small team of coders who are assigned tasks on a priority basis. I imagine something like DLNA has a comparatively low priority in the grand scheme of things, especially when the MU team had already managed to provide users with custom soundtracks.
Without previewing it first or adding a text comment?
Say what you will about ps4 video recording but the screen shot setup is about as perfect as I can envision it. If my xbone does exactly that I'll be happy.
Could it be they don't want screen shots at all of tv or something and are working out where and when to allow it?

What a great way to kill servers.
So if I want to make a screenshot of something with major spoilers for a gaf thread I can automatically spoil everyone on my friend's list?

Next step is to include automatic colour change for each month in the background, like in PS3
