PS3 Video Problem, any suggestions ?

Ok so here goes

im trying to play a video file on my ps3 i downloaded using real player on my computer.

when i go to video then select the usb drive it says "no files".

i then go back to the usb spot hit "triangle" display all, and there still is no video.

i then made a folder labeled "PS3" and made individual folders labeled "MUSIC" "PICTURES" and "VIDEO"

then put the flash drive back in the ps3 to try and locate the files using the triangle method and still NOTHING !

Does anybody have any other suggestions !

    heres the problem

    real player downloads .flv files which are flash videos

    as of yet ps3 does not support that kind of file, it may in future firmware updates

    but at the moment u need a flv to mp4 converter or flv to avi converter

    these are free to download and some dont need admin permission to instal either

    then after converting to mp4 or avi it will show there

    this was a problem i used to have
