how to play video on ps3?

Hie...I want to tell you about my procedure of playing videos on PS3. As we all know PS3 plays a major role in not only playing games but also using internet, having video chat and play music and movies. But there is always a procedure about using videos and watching movies in gaming console. You just have to plug the external hard drive's USB cable into the PS3. Your gaming console automatically detects the hard drive and it automatically detects all the files or movies or videos in it. You got to go PS3 menu option and go to video and drag it down to USB drive. You may have seen the triangle button; it appears when you highlight external hard drive. Click on display all, all the files on your hard drive, will show on your PS3, now you can play videos on it.
