I did it via 1gb flash drive... I believe you COULD set up a media server and copy it over LAN...

Why not simply stream the videos from your PC.

The program Orb only works with music as of now but have better plans for video streaming development over a router.

The easiest method might be WMP11. It's best with music and pictures but videos is a different story since the only thing playablewill be mpeg2 files. If your videos are in MP4 format they wouldn't be shared unless you do registry edits which i doubt you want to get into.

You can burn the videos on disk (CD-R, DVD+RW, etc.) on your PC (Mpeg4 format), load disk/select, and hit the triangle to show content of the disk. I forget but there's another button on the controller that will let you copy to the harddrive. Only problem is that there's no UI/SW that will organize stuff - it will show you small clips of each video though...

I've got a 2 gb flash drive and a 4 gb psp memory stick. But I mainly convert videos into MPEG4 and then put it on the flash drive. I've got like 20 movies and Heroes Season one on my ps3.

You can also use an iPod if you have one. I have about 30 gigs of free space on my video iPod and it works just like a flash drive on both the PC and the PS3.
