PlayStation®Home General Discussion

We are told this is yet to come but what's with the delay lol?

Were not asking to stream and share copyrighted music to each other... only to playback music from our XMB during use of Home. This would be great as you could play music from a CD as home does not require a disk to run... unlike Killzone 2.

Out of pure guess, allowing users to play music from the XMB would require a quick phone call or two with whatever higher powers there are in Sony to give Home to codes to allow XMB Audio playback. Simply somewhat add something to the start up codes and make an update and walah, 10,000's of Home users made just that bit happier.

Copyright? Can't use that excuse! Look at Killzone 2, you can playback audio during any online or skirmish battle. Regardless of your rights to play that media, its clean on home's legal end as your not using Home to transmit it for reproduce it.

If it comes to fact of it being really technical and that the audio could be streamed over headset, simply disable headset use during XMB audio playback.

PLEASE SCEE... ADD XMB AUDIO PLAYBACK.

And while were talking XMB, it would be nice to view photos too that we have taken in home, instead of having to exit out to see them fullscreen.

+1 as they say , some people will try to tell it will lag up Home to much... pfft poop

[Wait-Jester-Sec]

I usually have my mp3 player going on when i am in home. this would be great i could pump out some rock while talking to mates \m/ ^_^ \m/

[SilentShadow777]

agreed, if a £6 PSN game like hustle kings can support this then why can home not, and any issues of lag that may have been caused im sure will have been rubbished by the speed of home with the new updates, loading times are next to nothing. and the legal issues are obvisously already sorted as alot of games use this music system.

i dont see what is stopping this,

thyladax, anything to add to this discussion, has this been discussed by home core client dev team

[Spidie_Pig_Rules]

werent they looking into something like this ?

[SilentShadow777]

dunno, not i have heard, i pm'd dax asking if he knows anything about this.

[Spidie_Pig_Rules]

im sure i rea somewere they were looking into it as an option

[SilentShadow777]

cool, hopefully dax can give us some kind of official word on the progress of this. some personal spaces can be a little quiet.
