Hello! just bought a PS3 and am trying to play my MP3 songs on it. it recognizes the device and shows all the songs --- but will not play them. says that there are no titles/songs to play. even tried to copy the songs to the ps3 but says that there are no titles to copy... the songs on my mp3 are not protected so i dont understand why it wont play them (?)
Whether you are hooking up your device through a USB cable or removable memory (SD card/Flash drive) the PS3 should recognize and play the titles. Here are a few steps to help you along.
1. Hook up device to your PS3
2. Select PS3 media icon where files files should be located
3. Press triangle button on controller
4. Sub menu will show up on side of screen
5. Select the 'display all' option
6. Files should now be accessable/loadable/playable
Playing files directly from the Mp3 player or loading them on the hard drive are both do-able and both methods should work.
You need to press Triangle then click X on Display All. The default view uses some kind of Sony-proprietary list of content no one seems to understand. Display All tells it to actually show you what you expected... your files.

Trying to access mp3 files on HP Media Server on local network through the PS3, version 2.2. The PS3 can recognize folders, artist and song title, but says the files are unplayable, or unrecognizable. All files play on my networked computer through WMP. Also, PS3 can not see my computer; I'm suspecting virus protection is making it "invisible?"
I have the same problem.
I connet mp3 with my usb it displays the songs but they wont play
