Pink Floyd
The Beatles
The Prodigy
Stevie Wonder
Brand New Heavies
Orbital
Fort Minor
Biffy Clyro
Radiohead
Talking Heads
Damien Rice
2Pac
Fun Loving Criminals
Erasure
The KLF
Whitesnake
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Led Zeppelin

Granted, there seems to have been a new update and bunch of things I couldn't find I can now. There's also "2Pac" there, but it's only 1 song and it's not even really his (just a "featuring 2Pac" and a bunch of other people). Nice selection of Cypress Hill on VidZone though I must admit :D I'm also maybe searching for bands that might not have a lot of music videos out - I don't really know who does and doesn't.
 
Glad to see they've fixed a lot of the performance issues, it's much smoother now. Still doesn't interest me much because there's not a lot on there I like, but that's a subjective thing really.

Set it as controller one after you boot up vidzone and it works fine.
Annoying having to do that though.

Hey, thanks for that. I was pulling my hair out, well not really..!! lol but I was wondering why that didn't work.

thanks..

vidzone is ok, I use it as background music, its like MTV but you control it. videos in fullscreen are ok, not HD but for free - who cares, sound is great.

:D lol thats what they all say...
No problem for me, haven't got a single friend on PSN, yep.... I've had a PS3 for ages and not one mate has one.. they all have Xbox 360...:(

Tell you something though... PS3 with BBC iplayer, vidzone, games, media playback and I've just got a PSP with remote play working, so can watch vidzone on this as well - done nothing for my hobby as a model car builder... :( Not built a model car for nearly a year now....

Oh well, thats the PS3 for you..... Too much crammed into one games console.:p
 
Why aren't the playlists saved to your profile when you select them?

When you exit the application, whatever playlists/songs you had selected get wiped and you have to re-search and add them back each time. :mad:
 
Update sounds good, must have missed it in between playing Batman yesterday. Ability to use the chatpad and 16:9 support is enough for me :)

Tried it a couple of times, wasn't very impressed with the sound and video quaility, i'm better off turning on my pc and going to utube
 
never through of that, but to be honest my setup is that my PC and PS3 are hooked up to the same monitor. So i only really use the PS3 when it's something my PC can't do. Obviously that will change when i get a place of my own and they won't be near each other or even in the same room
 
Very pleased about this update. I had a feeling vidzone was going to keep improving and I find myself using it quite often as the sound comes over great on 5.1 speakers.
 
I'm having a really difficult time logging in to Vidzone at the moment. Keeps stalling whilst sync'ing the video feeds at start up of the application.
Any good ideas?

I have managed to access it once, seemed OK, but then the missus decided to close it whilst I was putting our little one to bed. Couldn't open Vidzone up again post that.
