PS3 usage guide¶
Getting started¶

For featureset of Movian see https://movian.tv/projects/movian/wiki/Features
Video output¶
I've tried to set reasonable defaults for overscan compensation. But if it not correct for you it can be adjusted under Settings -> Display and UI settings
Hardware limitation on playing media:¶
PS3's cell codecs do not support playing with hardware acceleration following video codecs: HEVC/H265, H264 profile > 4.2, H264 High 10 (10bit), VP6, VP8, VC1/WMV9. Movian tries to play those anyway (ie decodes by using CPU). But the success varies to sound only or blackscreen when reframes/resolution are high.
