    No matter how I try I cannot get my PS3 to play converted mkv files in 24p. I've tried streaming them directly using ps3 media server without any pre conversion and it only plays in 60hz. I've tried converting to AVCHD files and running from usb with the same results.

    No matter what I do with the files, I can only get them to play on PS3 at 60hz. I can play BR movies just fine at 120hz but I can't get any files to play this way.

    *update*

    I was finally able to play them in 24p from a file when I keep the directory in tact on the usb drive in AVCHD format (usb:\BDMW; usb:\CERTIFICATE)

    So here's my new question. How do I put a whole bunch of these on the same usb? Won't windows merge the two folders (BDMW and CERTIFICATE) each time I copy a new movie onto the drive? Is there a specific directory structure that I can use in order to archive these for viewing on external usb plugged into PS3? Can I stream AVCHD and keep 120hz?

    what program are you using to create your AVCHD's?

    I'm not sure how you are viewing these movies if BDMW and CERTIFIVATE folders aren't already in a AVCHD folder on the root of you USB. I assume you do have them in such a folder. So, all you have to do is change the movie name to AVCHD. Say you have 5 movies

    /run
    /blink
    /saw
    etc.. and within each of those root folder you'll have your BDMW and CERTIFICATE folders for each movie. So, just change saw to AVCHD and after you've watched it change it back and so on. There is even a program you can find called AVCHDManager that will change the names of your movie foldes for you. Its a free program and you can find it with google

    hope that this helps
