I'm after a wifi with uncharted, FIFA and any size men card

Will upgrade men card at a later date for a 32gb I think
 
Was just an episode of Top Gear in mkv format. Think it was just something I did tho!

Quick question regarding resolution.

Currently doing an Ep of South Park

Source: 624 x 352

When I try to edit the Width and Height it will just stay at that, even if Keep Aspect Ratio is ticked or unticked. Any ideas?
Have you set anamorphic to none? you can't change the resolution until you do that. Also Handbrake my not upscale things. I've never tried! If not the Vita should still play the file fine at whatever resolution you set it at.

The best program I've found for putting videos on the Vita so far is XMedia Recode, you can get it here for free, http://www.videohelp.com/tools/XMedia-Recode

I've used this to put across 1080p *.mp4 videos and it works like a dream, no syncing issues.

Just set it up like so,





With regards to bitrate, if you right click your video file in windows and select 'Properties' and then the 'details' tab it will tell you the bitrate of the file so you can match it in the encoding software.

Like I've said though I've only used this for 1080p mp4's so not sure how it will fair with other formats.

ok retried the unit 13 demo past the training, it had me on the edge of my seat! definate must buy now! can really feel that sense of progression too!

That demo also has co-op I think :)

The full game has co-op and leader boards like Motorstorm for fastest time to clear the room, points, etc. Still not had a chance to play it!
 
And there have not been any shortages of the Vita - far from it. The retailers only got a limited supply which have been fulfilled by a limited customer base.

I'm not sure what's "limited" about it, I work for a supermarket and even we had loads of them delivered. There's plenty of stock out there.
 
My Vita wouldn't turn on this morning :( , when i put it on charge the button which is normally blue was just flashing orange. Couldn't find anything in the manuals about it so did some googling and found a little fix where you have to hold the power button down for around 30 seconds for a hard reset, it solved it. Dont know why it happened, only played it twice, maybe it doesn't like neglect.

Also does anyone else's eyes hurt from playing it for over 30 minutes? My eyes were so sore last night! I haven't had it sore eyes ever from playing a console!

Eyes didnt hurt as such but it was around 10-11pm i was super tired and silly me thought lets play some Wipeout 2048 that made my eyes sore cause was too quick and not reccomend to play when sleepy lol
 
how are people getting on surfing the net via 3G speed wise?

ispgeeks.com gave me 1.17Mbps or 150KB/s on a H signal with 2 bars. I'll try another one with better signal later.

If anyone wants to test you cant use speedtest.net as the Vita has no flash.

What a shame. :( It's hardly difficult for them to get it certified and hack the media player a bit. Well a group of hackers will do it I guess. MUCH to Sony's dismay of course.

It's still disappointing that none of the consoles nativley play MKV however I can understand why to a degree.

It'll be interesting to see hat happens. Hotz won't do it as he is under court order so who knows. Sony i think know how important piracy was to the PSPs software sales so will hopefully have made it as secure as the PS3 was (apart from the silly mistake with the random number generator being fixed lol)

That's bloody tempting. I'm sure FIFA wasn't in the original amazon deal as I did check
My wife is working tomorrow and I have prime which means I have less than 40 mins to order for 1pm delivery tomorrow
Think I'll take the plunge... She's gonna kill me

Do it!

Ordered lol
I'm a dead man walking :D

Hehe.

Remember start by telling her how much you saved. The RRP of those bits is £315.

And no it wasn't in the original deal, they've changed it to match the supermarkets I think.
 
So what do people make of the Vita then? The girlfriend is after one. :p

Had a brief look at it in a shop earlier and Uncharted looks incredible.
