    As some of you know firmware update 2.50 upgraded the flash player to flash 9.
    If you have NBA League Pass Broadband, you can now watch games on your tv via the PS3'S browser and just put it on full screen, with GOOD quality.

    I'm personally thinking of just getting the NBA LEAGUE PASS Broadband only deal. It'll be cheaper and I can play it on my big screen.

    Where is this GOOD quality feed you speak of?

    I subscribed to LPBB last night for the game, and it's like a normal streaming video of semi-decent quality for me. Does the PS3 upscale the stream somehow?

    Hmm idk, on my connection the quality is good. Play the video regular size and zoom in to make it full screen with R2 and L2 on the PS3 Controller and you can make it look really good.

    Thanks but that is of no use for me, since my PS3 and cable box is hooked up to the same TV, I can just watch League Pass in TV form.

    I think he's talking about people that opted to get the broadband only package

    That's weird, it looks like its different for everyone.
    Works fine with me.
    Maybe it's connection speed?

    Wow. This is really cool. I'm watching the Rockets and Thunder game as an archive. Quality is really good at full screen. If it's this good for live games, I might get the LPBB.
