1. How can you load image files to change the back ground? When I load a thumb usb drive with .jpgs the PS3 won't recognize it.

2. Why doesn't the web browser work like it should? For instance if I load digg.com I see the main page for a second then I get a white page with nothing on it. Or if I go to this website and try to click on a thread the browser redirects me to some other random forum page. What can I do to fix this?

3. Can the PS3 stream iTunes from my computer? To be more specific I would love to be able to play and control playlist that are on my computer through my PS3.

4. How do I access the media files on my computer via the PS3? I have a wired router hooked up but the PS3 can't find the media network when it scans for it.

5. Is the PS3 a better upscaling SD DVD player than the Xbox 360 hooked up via VGA? I assume the answer is yes?

6. What settings should I use to get the most out of my SD DVD/BD playback? I have a 1080p set hooked up via HDMI. My set is not 1.3 or 24fps.

Thanks!

1. How can you load image files to change the back ground? When I load a thumb usb drive with .jpgs the PS3 won't recognize it.It won't recognize the usb drive? or it won't recognize the files on the usb drive?

Or if I go to this website and try to click on a thread the browser redirects me to some other random forum page. What can I do to fix this?Not sure what's happening there. It's always worked okay for me. I will say, though, that the web browser is far from perfect.

3. Can the PS3 stream iTunes from my computer? To be more specific I would love to be able to play and control playlist that are on my computer through my PS3.Not iTunes. You'll have to set something else up. There are a bunch of threads (still very active) describing how to do this.

4. How do I access the media files on my computer via the PS3? I have a wired router hooked up but the PS3 can't find the media network when it scans for it.See number 3.

5. Is the PS3 a better upscaling SD DVD player than the Xbox 360 hooked up via VGA? I assume the answer is yes?Guess I don't need to answer this one since you answered it yourself. :)

6. What settings should I use to get the most out of my SD DVD/BD playback? I have a 1080p set hooked up via HDMI. My set is not 1.3 or 24fps.Get a great sound set-up! Your display settings should all be just fine already.

When I plug in the drive it recognizes it but it says that there are no images present (which there are).

Press the triangle button when you highlight the jump drive, then select display all. Should bring them up then. Make sure you are under the photo tab when you do, though.

I am quite sure you can stream from itunes using the latest medialink app.

Actually yes you can. I just tried it and it works.

google for medialink.

yeh, the ps3 will decode aac natively. the only audio it won't decode natively is apple lossless and flac. you need to stream those transcoded from a PC.

Thanks guys!

I'll try that stuff.
Do you need to have a mac to run medialink?

Any idea about the web browser?
