how do you guys get the ps3 to play .mkv files and also .srt files (subtitle) eventho i named it the same as the movie and tried clicking on subtitle option, still it cant load the subtitle file. So how does everyone get this to work then ?
thanks.

U may use mkv2vob to convert the mkv file to mpg/vob file in order to ps3 to recognize it. if u save the srt file within the same folder with mkv, the subtitle will be forced embedded into the mpg/vob file.

If u no need subtitle, then just use tsmuxer to convert the mkv to ts file then can play on ps3 d... the conversion time is much shorter here...

[/quote]Hi all,
.
me again and sorry to open another posting. Reason being since I got another issue. I'm trying to turn my PS3 into a digital media port. Bought a 1TB external HD and transfered all my photos as music from my apple to the HD.

U can select the ps3 detected external hd and press the triangular button, choose display all to browse the content in yr hd.

If u press round button to browser the hd, it will always display no content..

Just buy a ethernet cable plug your ps3 to your router. Install Java PS3 Media Server and Voila! everything in ur pc hdd can browse from ur ps3. Money for 1tb hdd alredi saved! smile.gif

Remember if u use external hdd for ps3 - it can only read fat32 format which is quite a pain if you have bluray mkv files

I wonder y when i use ps3 media server to stream mkv on ps3, the movie always shuttering even though i change from wireless to ethernet cable.

At first i use my 3 yrs old notebook and i thot it is too old to do the job. after trying it on my fren powerful pc, the problem still remain... cry.gif
