Transferring big files to PS3
Ok I want to transfer a number of HD videos to my ps3. problem is doing it over the network takes WAY too long so I was thinking just buy a 8gb flash drive format it to fat32 and transfer them right?
Then I read that FAT32 has a 4gb file limit and most of the files are around 4.5gb
So I was wondering what do you think the best way is for me to transfer these files to my PS3?
I would very much prefer not splitting the files.

Yeah I guess. Well can you copy files from dvds to the PS3?
Also is it possible to transfer files through enthernet cable or something?

i don't know about the ethernet cable, but i have copied file from a dvdr to my ps3,
it has to be a data disc though not dvd format, if that makes sense

Yeah alright. I'll buy a few dvd rw's later so I don't just waste the dvds and use the same dvd again another time.

but just in case anyone has anymore suggestions please shoot!
