Finding non compatible files on PS3??

charyoutree · 05-11-2007, 11:01 AM

Okay this is quite simple and amazingly frustrating. I downloaded some wmv movies onto my PS3 and realised afterwards that I could not find them....

That is fine I am only using my PS3 until I get my PC back from repair, BUT how do I find the files to delete them?

I cannot view them with the xmedia bar as they are not in a supported format, I have tried to get to the HDD from teh web interface but no joy so far.

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Is it possible they do not exist.

The hard drives are removeable , if you look on the side their is a panel so you can remove it. Try taking it out and pluging it into your cpu (when you get it back) and deleting it that way

cheers will try that when I get my PC back :)

and will post here if successful, the other option I suppose is to install Linux as the OS and then I can play with a real OS :) but I would rather not do that seeing issues that others have had.
