I have a 2T hard drive that I formatted to FAT32 for use on my PS3. I have successfully placed file on the hard drive (size under 4GB) and played them on the PS3. However, I have some .mkv files that Are over 4GB. From what i have read I cannot put these on a FAT32 HD. They are 720 movies and i don't want to sacrifice video quality. How can I keep the 720p resolution and make the files smaller than 4GB. (without splitting the file into multiple files and playing them in sequence) Thanks!
I have no idea how large the file limit is for playing from HDD on a PS3, but you could split the audio/video using something like VirtualDub, convert the audio into a lesser bitrate and then remux the two.
Ok Ripper but will that have any effect in the video quality as I,m also having similar kind of problem for which I,m finding a solution..
It shouldn't do if you don't re-encode the video at all, and then simply re-add the lesser quality audio.
I didn't think DVD Shrink could handle mkv files, only DVD compliant folders/.iso. Video quality may be reduced though. Didn't know that about FAT32 - you learn something new every day.
