I received a WD My Book of 1Tb for Christmas. I've put all of my video files on it and now I want to stream them to my playstation. I tought that the fastest way to do it would be to plug the HD with the USB cable straight into the playstation. The PS3 recognize my My Book, but when I go inside, the PS3 tells me that there is no file. Is there something that I have to do to make it work? I checked and the HD is formatted with FAT32.

The other solution for me would be to stream the video files from my PC like I use to do, but I'm streaming via WiFi so it's not that great. I tried to stream from the external HD from the computer but it doesn't work. I read somewhere that I need to use TVersity, but if I could find a way to do it straight from the HD to the PS3 via USB, it would be the best scenario for me.

Any suggestions?
