hi guys does the ps3 have like a built in media player, as in can i play .AVI files? i mean i heard of some firmware upgrades that added some more functionality but i have not had a chance to get to upgrade my firmware yet. did a later firmware update add this functionality?

well i've got a ton of anime on an external hard drive of mine i was just wondering if it is possible to hook it up to my ps3 to watch them on my tv.

i've only got one of them 40gb ones if that helps

Thnx in advance

The PS3 has limited media format support. You can either transcode to a PS3 friendly format or use a streaming app like TVersity that transcodes on the fly.
