You will find that recordings play less than perfectly on the PS3. Specifically lipsinc is somewhat random, and changes on fast
forward & rewind, but the biggest problem is that the PS3 aborts at the slightest glitch in the data, and one must restart the
recording from the beginning at that point.

Sony has been informed of these bugs (several years ago), but does not seem to care.
