Lets get straight to the point – Media Go, the free software that lets you manage your PSP game, music, video and photos on your PC has been updated with some handy new features in version 1.3…
… and here they are …
Download status is now displayed, letting you know how long until you can start playing that new game.
You can also now pause your downloads allowing you to control which items in the list download first, so if you have just brought a great new game for your PSP you can pause everything else, get the game and start to get through the levels while the rest of your content downloads.
System update notice – when you plug your PSP into your PC it will automatically suggest you update to the latest PSP system software if you haven’t already. Handy, if you’re like me and constantly forget to update.
Bonus Digital Copy – Media Go 1.3 now detects if there is extra bonus copy for your PSP on a DVD or Blu-ray disc. This feature will start to be used by the studios in the future to give you extra features from films and games specifically for your PSP.
As well as music playlists (added in the last update) you can now transfer video and photo playlists from your PC to your PSP in Media Go 1.3
Media Go now supports Windows 7 and you get some nifty little features like transfer progress on the Windows task bar.
And you get a thumbnail of media go in the task bar that includes handy playback controls
We have added a photo reel so that you can view your photo albums easier in the film strip style you can see below.
When playing your media in Media Go we have added a quick link on the play back controls for you to go straight to that track/video in your library.
You now have the ability to choose the thumbnail that represents your videos from any part of the actual video footage. Simply go to the video properties and then the Artwork tab and choose the frame you want to act as the thumbnail.
You can now adjust the text size within Media Go to the setting that suits you best. Simply go to ‘preferences’ and select the text size you want.
You will notice the new ‘Comics’ tab under library now. This is to allow you organize all your digital comics when they launch on the Store in December 2009 (UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and please see playstationcomics.com for details of when comics will be hitting other countries).
The final part of this update is that we have added the ability to rotate videos whilst in full screen mode. This is especially handy if, like me, you often film videos on your phone/camera in portrait and then only relalise when you go to view it on your PC!

So the yeah.. The auto-firmware-update does not work. My guess is that you have not put out the update on MediaGo servers yet.
It says that my 6.00 firmware is up2date. Which it is not.

I already have 5 different media players for different devices, I don’t see why you keep reinventing the wheel…
Where is DLNA support? Atleast I’d be able to remove one of the redundant media players if MediaGo would support that atleast.

For me the features I would like to see in the next (or version 2.0 of Media Go) are:
DLNA Sharing – The Network Sharing needs to be DLNA compatible. Sony already offers DLNA services on its devices (such as the PS3), so this software needs to fit in with the rest of its product. If this were the case, ALL of my music, video’s and photo’s would be managed in Media Go.
Friends list and messaging – The application should have the ability to see which of your PSN friends are on line and allow you to text/voice/video chat them. While I admit this doesn’t fit in entirely with a “Media” application, the application also integrates with the PlayStation Network, so a friends list and messaging ability would further the integration. A feature like Steam’s friends list would be good.
Minimize to System Tray – If the application is going to act as a DLNA server and instant messaging application then it needs to be able to minimize itself to the system tray, and not leave an applications tab in Windows.
Launch on startup – if the application gets the two above features, then launching on Windows start up would be needed

I guess the Digital Copy support only applies if the Digital Copy is designed for the PSP and will not support any existing Digital Copies we have that were made prior to this release, and not from Sony??
