Plug your USB drive into one of the USB ports on your PS3. Navigate to the 'Video' section on the XrossMediaBar (XMB), and you should see your USB drive listed. Just select it and browse for your video files. Don't forget to hit 'Triangle' and choose 'Display All' if your files aren't showing up!

Make sure your videos are in a compatible format like MP4 or AVI. Once your USB is connected, head to the 'Video' section on the XMB, press 'Triangle,' and select 'Display All.' Your files should pop up!

Put your videos in a 'VIDEO' folder on the USB drive. This makes it easier for the PS3 to recognize them. Plug in the USB, go to 'Video' on the XMB, and select 'Display All' to see your files.

Honestly, just use a USB stick and put your videos in a folder named 'VIDEO.' Plug it in, go to 'Video' on the XMB, press 'Triangle,' and select 'Display All.' Super easy!
