WTF, we need EXIT2MULTIMAN !!!

Who needs exit 2 xmb, since you can do it via ps button -.-

I don't know about everyone else, but I really don't like the new gui for Showtime. I like the old interface much more.

The meta feature of showtime is really a big epic fail, it just doesnt work as it should since every video that I got in my library show the same title like, Avatar, wow! I have Avatar on my collection even if I dont.

Else, the GUI is just look sexy, just dont like the bigger Icons today, I just the way it look like in 4.00

But at least there are one or more bugs were fixed, none of them were related fixing the various SMB bugs that most of the time crashes the PS3.

the metadata is... interesting. it surprises me sometimes when it works, other times it just renames files to movies like you said.

i'll try to turn it off, but then it's right back on when i load up showtime again.

[conceptemc2]

This sort of Homebrew Application sounds truly promising. I appreciate all the details provided.

[JOshISPoser]

damn, i update to testing all the time to see if certain problems get fixed. anyways, videos will still quit out at a random point if i pause them for too long. i think it jumps to the end cause if i have resume playback, it just starts the video over
