Xray Vision and other nonsense
The Apple trailers web site recently posted the hi-def version of the trailer for Disney’s A Christmas Carol.
I’m very excited about it since I worked on all of the crowd animation for this film as well as some other R&D.
I’ll also be presenting the work we did for crowd animation on Disney’s A Christmas Carol at SIGGRAPH Asia 2009 in Yokohama in December.
Disney just released this trailer for Disney’s A Christmas Carol on Youtube. Check it out:

…And there was much sadness.
I downloaded and installed the 3.01 firmware with no issues. Rebooted the PS3. I loaded Beatles Rockband and played for about ten minutes before it froze up again. After rebooting, I could not get the game to start.
Further testing on 3.01 reveals that:
1) DVD movies play back OK
2) PS2 games (on DVD) play fine.
3) Downloaded content seems to work OK
4) PS3 does not recognize bluRay discs as a valid format.
Since most of what I do with the PS3 involves bluRay in one way or another, my system continues to be “borked”.
I tried to load both ps3 games on bluRay as well as two seperate bluRay videos I have. None were recognized by the PS3.
I cannot play any bluRay content.
Total bummer.
I got my copy of The Beatles Rockband on Nein! Nein! Nein! looking forward to a Saturday afternoon of enjoyable entertainment and great music. The game insisted that I upgrade my PS3 firmware to the new 3.00 release. OK, no problem. I’ve done this before. Everything seems OK.
Game starts up and I plug in the drum controller. CRASH! Power Cycle. Reboot.
