Same here. I have tried a few that say they are PS3 compatible but 0 have worked.

I like Any Video Converter. It's free, doesn't leave a watermark and outputs in mp4 that works fine on my Touchpad and Android phone.

I use Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr).

I use it for all of my DVD rips for my media NAS at home, and the files I create from it work on XBMC, my iPhone, and my PS3 with very little configuration needed, if any. In fact, when I download an older anime series that's in avi format and I want it on my iPhone for a trip, I just run it through Handbrake and everything syncs fine.

I use Format Factory which is free
http://www.formatoz.com/

It's easy to use and it can convert pictures, music and videos to basically anything you would ever want

@wickedd365: If your trying to stream movies from your PC to your PS3, install VLC player for all the codex your gonna needs, then install PS3media server or Playon. PS3 will recognize it as a media server and you and stream ANY format you want. Hmmmm, unless it happens to be CINAVIA protected. :)

@gthuffines: It's not for my PS3. I use my Xbox. I try to take disk or flash drives to my friends to watch them on his PS3.
I will try handbrake this weekend.

@brays3440: Not sure about the error, but do you have the .Net Framework installed? You can get it from Microsoft, or from FileHippo: (http://www.filehippo.com/download_dotnet_framework_3/)

Keep in mind that each .Net Framework version stands alone by itself; having 4.x doesn't mean a program that requires 3.x will be able to use it. Whatever version the error mentions is the one you need to look for to install.

If you do already have the Framework installed for the .Net version that's giving you an error, I'm not sure where to go from there. Maybe the forums may be able to help?

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
