Primary use is the Blu-Ray disc playback. Then games console. Followed by picture viewer using laptop as a media server as we have a large plasma panel which the family enjoys looking at wedding photos and other events on.

Games and a bit of music.

Media, mainly (BDs, DVDs, streaming videos).
I do play games on it too, but only exclusives (Uncharted, LBP, etc.) as my 360 is my main gaming system. |

I use for photos, videos, DVD & Blu-ray.
I do play games on it, but only those I can't get for my main system. My Spectrum +3 with 128k disk drive is my main system. |

My 360 is perfectly adequate for everything else (and I only really play Forza on that too...) |

You can however get round this by pressing triangle and selecting display all on the drive under the appropriate secion on the PS3 to browse the drive. |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
Do i have to format as a fat32? I read i had to. Would that be right?
|
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
Yup, FAT32.
You can also stream videos & other media from your computer to the PS3. |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
why dont you just stream movies from your pc to ps3 ??
i use this http://ps3mediaserver.blogspot.com/ works great !! |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
I thought about streaming, but then you'd need the pc on too right? Do usb sticks need to be formatted too?
|
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
Yep, the PC would need to be on for it to be able to stream ;) :)
USB sticks must be FAT32, just like HDDs. |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
Matt (or anyone else) I've formatted the USB, and created a video directory on it. COpied some movies to the USB stick (8gig kingston data reader). Plugged it into the ps3, and the PS3finds the files fine. Displays all the correct details. However when i play it, its just a black screen. So when I display the film info (using the triangle button) the film length bar at the bottom right hand corner has 00:00:00 on either side - which indicates film on stick is 0 mins long.
I can watch movie fine on my laptop off the stick! Can someone help! |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
Which container & codec does it use?
The PS3 won't play *everything*. |
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
I only use my PS3 for playing games, need a bigger TV if I plan on watching TV and using it for films and stuff.

I'm the same as Matt. I use my PS3 for exclusives or media that doesn't work on my 360.
|
Re: What do you use your PS3 for?
I use it mainly as a Blu-Ray player and to stream video to my lounge, and play the ocassional game (Drake Uncharted, Killzone). Prefer to game on my Xbox 360.
