No spaces or weird stuff in the movie titles:

This-will NOT! work.mpg wont work

Thiswillwork.mpg this will work

Burn as a data disc with Nero, place data disc inside ps3, hit triangle and just copy resultant movie files.

Movies must be in mpeg-2 with mpeg audio.

Common problems of black screen or data corrupt are folks burning a data disc with mpeg-2 VIDEO and AC3 AUDIO

Another option is to use Nero to make a 100% PS3 compliant AVCHD disc that plays and can be copied to the PS3 EVERY TIME! (nice for those HD .mkv files that some folks just "find" on the net).
