The main draw back to FAT32 is that it has a 4 gig file size limitation:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314463I believe MC Tyler is Mr. Video like myself and meant to say NTFS not NTSC, though maybe it makes sense that FAT32 would hang with PAL while NTFS and NTSC would get along famously. Thanks for the swiss knife link! Anyone know of a way to schedule my PS3 to play certain vids at certain times?

You can simply put a FAT32 partition on your drive and do it that way. You can do that in windows without downloading anything.

PS3 (last i checked) only reads flash drives and hard drives formated in FAT32, not NTSC. Large hard drives come formatted in NTSC, and windows XP and vista will not format large hard drives into NTSC, so you have to download other software on your comp in order to format your hard drive to fat32. Then it will read music, video, pics that are the correct file types that PS3 can read. Also system update your ps3 so it can read as many files as possible. Download this program to format: http://www.compuapps.com/download/Swissknife/swissknife.htm

Hello, I know the Playstation 3 playbacks avchd video straight from the memory stick pro duo used in Sony's avchd video cameras. Maybe you should try your card on a playstation 3 and see if It can playback the video. Hope this helps.

I tried just copying the files to my mac and was disappointed I couldn't watch the videos.HOWEVER! I opened iMove (while the SDHC card reader was still plugged in with the card from my FS100 in it) and what to my wonderous eyes should appear!? All of the movies! I could see thumbnails and play them.I just clicked "Import All" and it started importing them. My camera did not need to be plugged in at all :)

Just wanted to point out since other people referred to an HDMI cable. You cannot use an HDMI cable to capture from the PS3 because of HDCP. You will need to use the A/V breakout cable or something that will strip the HDCP.

Got a question, I got this TV and PS3 with a HDMI cable, but as I connected my PS3 with a HDMI cable version 1.3, the TV cannot find the signal...Do you know what could be the problem??

i have a question regarding the SD card integration. Can you play files (audio and video) on the SD card directly or you have to move them to the internal memory before you can play them? Thank you

Mine ONLY works with my PS3. No other hardware device will recognize it now. It happened all of a sudden. If anybody knows why that might be, please let me know.

The best thing to do is format the memory stick that you have, also check to see if there actually is enough space on that stick. My solution was formatting it to a file that the PS3/PSP will be able to read.

Even I am looking for a similar answer. Please let me know if this or some other one that particularly works with PS3. Thanks

There are several ways to display the images from the camera: 1) Take the SD card out of the camera and insert into the slot on the viewer 2) Copy files to a USB drive and then you plug in the viewer and then can access the USB drive and display. 3) Connect the HDMI connector port on the camera to the HDMI port on the viewer. See page 22 of the Viewer Manual. It tells you to use a Type A HDMI, and it can be directly connected. Then you have to select the HDMI input in the View menu. Good luck...

You have to put a jump drive in there, in the back. * 2GB seems to be the best idea, minimum. * But you can't use just any jump drive, because the slot is deeper and more narrow than you typically find on electronics (thanks a lot, Sony). * And (as if that wasn't annoying enough) I just got one to fit, but the 350 still won't recognize it. * Look at the owners manual, and there is a page about external memory where they suggest a Sony product by a specific serial number. I think that's what I am gonna try. * At the end of the day, the BD-Live content looks to be a lot of nonsense, but I've gotten sorta Ahab/Moby Dick about this task, and will pursue it to pointless depths. Good luck.

Don't know if I understand question but my husband uses his to check his game cameras. So he put the SDcard in viewer and looks at pictures. If he has pictures he wants to look at closer then he put empty SD card in camera and goes on. Hope that helps.

K. Khoeasa,You just need to make sure the SDHC card is formatted as FAT32 or the PS3 will not read it. Some SDHC cards come preformatted as FAT (ie FAT16), such as the SanDisk Extreme III that I bought :-)

I run the camera to my PS3 through the controller charger USB cable then I just browse with my PS3 to what I am looking for on the camcorder and either save or watch it. It does take a few minutes to save though. The other option is recording to a memory stick card and putting that in your PS3 if you have the correct model. It does use up quite a bit of space if you save footage on a PS3 though. I have really had no problems with it and it is kinda my best option to watch exactly what I recorded in the same quality till I get a blu ray burner.
