Can You Watch Videos Stored In A USB Flash Drive On The PS5? | Sony PlayStation 5

30 seconds of usefeull information . 7 min of verbal diarea

No offence

Good video

Ever heard of the phrase 'don't beat around the bush'?

Thanks! That's what mine was doing!

It's actually very simple to do but you have to follow some stuff: your USB needs to be formatted to ex-FAT or FAT-32. Then, you need to add a folder to the root of the USB, if you don't, PS4 or PS5 won't recognize anything. Then it should work. PS4 and PS5 both support mkv, mp4 and webm formats but they say they won't play copyrighted videos which is crazy. So maybe if you got your movie from a torrent or something, it will know and wont play it. Also, max res is 4K, don't try a bigger res, it won't work.

You got a new subscriber, by chance you resolved my problem, awesome ❤
PS: It did not work for my file formats 😢

😢

Jesus Christ loves you

I plugged my External Drive into my PS5 but it’s bot displaying the app icon & my Movies that’s on it.

Fake

Was the format mp4?

What format should you use, FAT, FAT32 or NTFS?

Your video is useless.

Shout out!!it worked🎉🎉🎉

Can we change subs and audio in videos ??

Dziękuję bardzo,zapomniałem jak to było …..Przypomniałeś że w ps3 było podobnie. DZIEKUJE

Works great! Thanks!

Dzięki za pomoc ❤

Fantastic cheers mate

Do I need to format my new storage device ect. Or can I just transfer my files in the created folders and plug in

Doesn’t work for me mkv on the USB drive. The folders show on the Playstation but it just won’t play.

omg - just do it!

You didn't say what format to set to the USB to.

yup, just create a ps5 folder on your USB

Thanks big dawg

how do I use my subtitles? SRT files

Thanks for this it was very helpful. Love you for this video.

Thank you!❤

PS5 thanks bro it worked after I put them in a folder on the stick

Can someone tell me how to access the ps5 media player AUTOPLAY feature?

So that could have been a 30second video...

Wait…how do you get the Media Galleries? 🤔

I did this on my PS5 with a 1tb PNY 2.5 ssd with a usb adapter. In my old PS4 I needed to make a folder "PS4" and then in that file create subfolder "Video". worked the same in the PS5

Couldn't just get to the point. Straight waffle.

its amazing that ps3 is still dominant in playing media files. a system nearly 20 years old

videos are working as it is, but can't read srt files for movie subs.

You saved my life ;)

Does the flash drive have to be 3.0?

will ps5 supports 4k mp4?

Bro, you a real one for this! Thanks for solving this issue. Definitely an underrated video! 💯💯

It worked like a charm. Thank you! Also, I did not have to name the folder "video". I just kept the movie in a folder.

Ahh so basically the TLDR version is you just have to put your video in a folder? Wow what a pain in the ass and such an unnecessary inconvenience lol thanks for this video

Thanks, this vid is a big help, but how do you get media gallery on your home page? Mine doesn't have it...

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks so much 🤗

I'm surprised there aren't more thumbs up if this works properly? I know its not great quality, but good info.

MP4播放後為何不能切換語音、界面才可以呢？
還有就是不知道MP4檔不能複製到PS5的空間或者SSD裡頭呢？
除了MP4以外，像MP3音樂檔是否可以在PS5播放？又要如何播放呢？

Why Can't the Voice and Interface Be Switched After MP4 Playback?
Also, Do You Know that MP4 Files Cannot Be Copied to the PS5 Space or SSD?
In Addition to MP4, Can Music Files Like MP3 Be Played on PS5? How to Play It?

Can you transfer movies and clips from the USB to store on PS 5

Thank you so much for this!
