The PS3 with the latest firmware (2.50 and later) now plays a lot more media than before. It will stream ATSC streams (OTA HD) w/ AC3 (5.1) audio, but the stream has to have PAT followed by PMT to see the stream as valid. If it is PAT, PAT, PMT or PMT, PAT, the PS3 will -think the stream is corrupted. Also, if the stream starts out w/ 2 channel -AC3 audio, and later switches to 5.1, you will be stuck w/ 2 channel audio. -Support for WMV and Xvid in AVI seems to work well. +think the stream is corrupted.
