I just managed to log-in via internet, haven't tried via PS4 though, downloading the beta now.

Finally got myself another PS4, just going to re-add you guys who were on my FL (hmm wonder how they got deleted) before. Can't remember everyone...
Siggy edit required then!
Welcome back

Have they added the ability to playback media (mp3/mp4/avi et al) on the PS4 yet? It's the only reason why I haven't taken the plunge yet, and I can't find anything mentioning it anywhere I've looked.

Cheers buddy, and, doneSiggy edit required then!
Welcome back
Right my thumbs keep slipping off the analogue sticks on my ps4 controller. Looking at videos the sticks are easy to change, will changing the sticks make my fingers stop slipping?
If so, what ones are people advising to get? I've seen loads on eBay bit not sure which ones to go for.

Loads of people seem to be putting the xbox one sticks in...
Soldato
Or you could try some of the orb type covers for them.
MP3 via USB stick, simple enough..
MKV /MP4 etc via Plex no direct DNLA as yet, and TBH I don't think it'll ever come, MKV playback seems to be covered by other devices nowadays. I don't see it as a high priority for Sony at the moment.
Soldato
This gets my vote. Haven't looked back since putting them in. They also feel like they're at a more comfortable height for my liking.
Can you recommend an eBay seller? Or a shop that sells them please?
Soldato
Here you go, i bought some of these which many others did, I gave some to anticonscience I'm sure he'll be around to let you know how he's getting on with his.

For anyone interested, I got a PlayStation TV yesterday purely for the PS4 streaming.
Works very well, I am on a wired network though. There is obviously some noticeable compression, but to say the image is a stream at 720p it's not too bad at all. I haven't noticed any image breakup or pausing like I sometimes got with remote play on the Vita.
Input lag for the controls is also more than acceptable, I played Driveclub without any difficulties.

Good to hear as I will be getting one of these soon
Between this, the Vita and the X1 on Windows 10 PC's I will be gaming everywhere!

Does the vita tv allow you to connect a ds4 and use the same account as the ps4 unlike the ps vita which does not, you connect a ds4 to a vita and it just asks you to log out the ps4 meaning you don't earn trophies on your main account, very annoying
Soldato
My guess would be plug it back in with the usb cable and press the home button?
Not quite sure what you mean? I'm using a DualShock 4 with my PS TV, and I only have one PSN account for both it and the PS4.
Thanks mate - I'll give them a whirl.
A question about the PS TV, if I were to get one, can I play Vita games on it? Or is it just for remote play?
You can, but not everything is compatible so check the official list first.
