Ps3 media stream error?

i get “the data type is not supported. (800288C0) the video is avi my tv can support avi videos so why can’t my ps3? i think i streamed it right from my computer to my ps3 i selected from my ps3 media server list my computer and i saw so how else can i play my video or fix the error? i can’t play on my HDTV because it is 7.47GB and my flash drive only has 7.45GB my flash drive is 8gig but i can’t see the other 55gigs of space anyways so i can’t transfer to my tv because the file size is bigger than my flash drive…
Answer #1
A 8 GB flash drive (or hard drive) to be recognised must be formated with some file system to work (FAT, FAT32, NTFS). And that file system uses that 0.55 MB So that is normal.
About the file, probably is mkv and that is not native supported by ps3 without a litle trick. Follow this: http://www.manolution.com/2011/06/the-complete-guide-to-playing-video-on-your-ps3/

if its a few then im guessing the ps3 doesnt support the audio.Didn’t feel like trying to do over ps3 anymore so i made the avi smaller ps3 way i made the file smaller. It is 6.54GB now instead of the 7.47GB i chose ps3 avi converstion way instead of instead of H264 AVI and now i can watch on my tv. my tv has a usb port. I think it will work over my ps3 but i don’t feel like trying since i can watch on my tv now if i have a file bigger even if i did the ps3 converstation and have same problem i will ask help again
