    The PS3's Supported Formats

    For your edification, IGN has helpfully posted a list of all the different media formats that the PS3 can be expected to play at launch.

    VIDEO • MPEG-1 • MPEG-2 (PS,TS) • H.264/MEPG-4 AVC • MPEG-4 SP

    MUSIC
    • ATRAC (.oma .msa .aa3)
    • AAC (.3gp .mp4)
    • MP3 (.mp3)
    • WAV (.wav)

    IMAGES
    • JPEG
    • GIF
    • PNG
    • TIFF
    • BMP

    AVI and DivX seems like the suspiciously missing contender there, which is a bit of a bummer. And what about Ogg Vorbis?

    Naturally, any type of refractive, laser-read disc under the sun will be supported... except, of course, laser discs, which are to DVDs what 8-Tracks also are to DVDs.
