jimmyselix – Not being able to hit the PS button when you are playing a song is actually a problem with the sampling rate at which you are playing your music. I don’t have a PS3 in front of my right now, but I think you need to set the default to 44.1 KHz. It will then let you jump out with the PS button. If you have it at 48 KHz, you can’t hit the PS button while playing music. It sounds strange, but that is the fix. (I might have it backwards, but I think 44.1 is the setting you want).

side notes: a while back ago, Sony removed the ability to keep a moving playing w/the XMB up. i believe this was due to xmb in game options.

also, you can no longer play a song and then hit PS button and browse library. very annoying! i loved being able to find the next song while the one played. arggg!!

is it formatted in FAT32 or NTFS? PS3 does not recognize NTFS (ie what XP and Windows 7 usually format as).

If you see the usb drive, hit Triangle on it and choose “Display All”

nope, would have to be a firmware update or hack.

Can you make it so other online friends can see the music you are listening to like the way you can see the games other friends are playing?

I put all my photoso on a USB memory stick. All files are JPEG but when the PS3 is saying there are no recognizable files. Help?

The ps3 SUX when it comes to putting music in a folder.. I have a folder with over 300 mixes in it, all sorted, I put it on the ps3, and guess what, I ended up with 300 folders, each containing a sepperate mix.. seems sony are intent on not only conning us, but making us go backwards.. in fact, the ps3 SUX because of how lame the gui is, it’s like, do they employ idiots? it’s so backwards, it needs a hammer..

I was having trouble reading the usb drive. The triangle button tip was pretty useful and voila, I am now watching videos.
Thanks,
