Direct Draw Surface (DDS) are used on PS3 (e.g. [[XMB_Manuals|XMB Manuals]]) and PS4
 
It seems at the release of PS3 firmware 1.00 the DDS support in XMB was not complete (or maybe not supported dds at all, this is hard to know), it was implemented gradually and only for a few specific display modes, the monthly background wallpapers inside lines.qrc was implemented in firmware 1.90/2.00 and PS3 manuals support around 4.00, this display modes are a bit special because uses full screen<!--and probably uses the background display buffer-->. But DDS was never implemented in PS3 RCO's... the PS3 RCO's doesnt even knows what is a DDS ([[RCOXML Images|because there is not an ID for DDS]]), so is not officially posible to store a DDS image inside a PS3 RCO, at the end of life of PS3 the RCO format was obsolete for several reasons and this was one of them. GIM format seems to superceed the features of DDS though
 
For PSVita the RCO format was highly modified, and at this point probably DDS support was added to RCO (this is speculative though). Later the RCO format from PSVita was inherited by PS4 and with it the DDS support, actually it looks like the whole interface of PS4 supports DDS (not only from inside RCO, but also for the ICON0.DDS of games/apps)
