I can't help you out with this - I know the PS3 is very picky about what
it will play unfortunately. You might look into running a separate uPNP
server that will transcode on the fly - I don't know of any linux ones,
but google may be able to help.

In the frontend, go to Setup -> Media Setup -> Videos Setup -> General
Settings. First screen should show you where files need to be. If you
don't set it up to browse the file tree, you'll have to do a scan before
you can see any videos.

FYI - top posting is frowned upon on this list. A lot of people get
very upset about it, so my advice is...When in Rome. (FWIW, I'm as
Roman as they come in this instance, but I practice a lot more tolerance
than some of my "countrymen")
