Things to note about movie/video formats and playback :



* Depending on the data type, some files may not be playable or some control panel options may not function during playback.



* Some video files distributed over the Internet have playback restrictions. For details, contact the content provider.



* When using a USB adaptor to play video files, you may need to use a USB adaptor (not included) that supports copyright-protection features (to play copyright-protected files). When using a USB adaptor to play AVCHD-format video files saved on Memory Stick media, use a device that supports Hi-Speed USB (USB 2.0).



* If your video files are copy protected, they may not play on the PLAYSTATION 3 system.





Hope this helps you !

Don't listen to Echo. Seriously.



Are you sure that your file is AVI? Maybe it's corrupted?

Anyway...Try PS3 Creator for converting to PS3 videos.
