I used PS3 Media Server as a backup plan whenever I'm unable to view certain file formats directly from the removable storage.

Instead of reconverting the files into the codec that the PS3 can understand and accept (which is very time-consuming), I would get PS3 Media Server to do on-the-fly transcoding so that I could watch the video file while the conversion process is being done concurrently.
