From my experience with PNY 128GB USB flash, NOTHING is possible. It broke right away -- exactly after 2 weeks of use. I, as a IT tech who is constantly out in the field working on other employees computers, use it a lot and I know better to eject when removing it from every computer that I use on; HOWEVER, this PNY just is not cut for this type of use. Choose other brands and skip PNY -- not good!

I would say no but I never kept the 128GB PNY since it uses highly encryption support and seemed to block all devices other than my computer. I am sure it was developed by sony but best bet is to get official sony ps3 flash drive. Hope that helps

No you cannot. There are RCA, 3-RGB, 1 S-Video and 1 HDMI ports, but no USB.

I use my PS3 to stream my songs and videos to my HDTV. As stated, this unit has built in support for Windows Medial Connect, so once you enable this feature on the home server you will have access to all your medial files (songs, videos, pictures).

The only way I know to retrieve the data is thru an active connection.I used mine with DirectTV but since Direct TV did an upgrade mine is just a paperweight and yours might be too.

I do not know if it can do so by directly inserting the streamer into the USB port of the projector. I've only used streaming services with it through a laptop.

Yes, it can browse/playback media from a DLNA server (personally I use Tversity).

Yes, you can connect a USB drive directly or access your files on the network. I have downloaded Plex Media Player from the Google Play store, and I love it. It catalogs all media, download poster and art if available on the Internet automatically. Google TV comes with media player but I like Plex and Avia players from play store.

The model I received has an HDMI port where you can get a video streaming.With usb only port, you can try a USB to HDMI port converter.

The device complies with HDCP copy protection so it will not work if copy protection flags are present in the digital signal. This is likely the case with all or much ofd the material transmitted via Direct TV but feel free to check with them. Even analog may be protected. Again check with Direct TV.

I don't think so. This device is meant to go from your cable box or DVD player to a PC or something with the USB port.

It also has a coax and VGA input as well. USB appears to only be useful for firmware update.

Unfortunately, my understanding is that the USB port is only for firmware updates or for inputting content from a USB stick. It cannot be used for outboard memory, nor to export content to a computer. If only it did... This thing is truly a one-dimensional device. I, too, have a DVD recorder with a tuner with which I can record off-air programming directly to DVD, but that proved to be an enormous pain when trying to capture all the episodes of even only two series. At least with the DVR I don't have piles of disks lying around. Sorry to be the bearer of less-than-desirable tidings.

There is another solution at http://www.schmartstuff.com/. For $35 you can buy a USB dongle that supports IR. It blends in well and works good. You have to customize your buttons for the activity you designate your PS3 for. It does not switch the PS3 on or off, but if you're watching a BD you have to put the disc in and take the disc out. Turning it off manually isn't a huge inconvienecne.

Its fast and easy to play content from an external HDD with the WD TV Live. I've other issues with it but if this is your purpose to have one: yes, it's a good equipment using a USB 3.0 connection. I did not use no USB 2.0 external HDD, then, for this I can't help you.

If you're using the WDMyCloud from Western Digital, yes. I have that serving media to all te LGs in my house. I've also played quite a bit of digital content off a USB stick.

You can upload content on the micro SD card slot that is available and play it while connected via USB. Otherwise you'll need a wifi connection for other streaming functions
