Since i'm not good in those kind of stuff i was wondering if someone knows what the problem is?

It might probably be your format. You are only experiencing difficulties when playing dexter. Otherwise you do get video when you switch on your PS3. You need to get a compatible format or convert it to a format that the PS3 understands. Google will help you through the way. And if you are getting audio that means there is something wrong with the file itself not the PS3 or your television for that matter.

To play WMV format files, you must go to (Settings) > (System Settings) and set [Enable WMA Playback].

guys thx for the answer but forgot to mention that WMA is already enabled.
So i don't know what the problem is:s since i read on the net that showtime also plays WMA files?
I was thinking that the problem has to be something with my TV as i can play it properly on my laptop?

yea i cant get any 720p video to play with showtime since i updated to these 3.0+ versions......the plugins work, and all video (mp4, mkv, avi) upto 720p plays fine, but with 720p and above playback, all i get is a black screen with audio no matter what format the file is in.

mm kj the movie i played that worked was indeed below 720p... dexter is 720p. gonna test it with another 720p release
