TIF files on PS3

Post by Karsi » Sun Jul 08, 2007 9:14 am

Dear twonky team,

why it is not possible to stream TIF - files to the PS3?
JPEG works fine, but TIF files are shown as 'not compatible'.

From an attached USB - disc everthing works fine.

Thanks for answering,

Best regards,
Karsten

Does the PS3 client support viewing TIF's locally?

I'm not sure what you mean by your question.

Again my experience with the different programs etc.:

- streaming JPEG to PS3: ok
- streaming TIFF to PS3: not compatible data
- using Windows viewer: Quicktime shows all pictures
- using USB hard drive: all pictures (TIFF and JPEG) are shown

So: Because PS3 is able to show TIFF files (using usb disc or something similiar) it should be also possible to stream these pictures. Perhaps this assumption is already wrong. I cannot find any details for dlna functionality but would be interested if this is my personal problem or a PS3, Twonky one.


System: MSS+, Twonky 4.4, PS3 latest firmware

Please let me know if I can test something for clarification.

Thanks for the fast reply and your next hint to solve this problem.

Best regards,
Karsten
