Part 1：Does PS3/PS4 Play MP4?
The answer of this question is yes and no, it depends on the MP4 detailed format. We have tried to choose the most authentic reason for not supporting MP4 files on PS3. According to play station support website, PS3 is only supporting that MP4 files which are fixed with H.264/MPEG-4 AVC high profile (AAC LC). While on the other hand MP4 is that container video design which is containing audio codec or a variety of videos. If the MP4 video is not programmed with PS3/PS4 attuned codec, then it is the case we will fall short to stream MP4 to PS3/PS4 or we will not be able to play MP4 files on PS3 and PS4 even if MP4 is effectively shifted to PS3 and PS4.
Part 2: Why Cannot My PS3/PS4 Play MP4?

Q3: I have an MP4 file (h.264/aac). When I put this file in a USB stick and insert the stick into PS3, it can see the USB stick but it says no files;
As we know there are still some other MP4 videos codec which can be used in encoding video, such files are unsupported by PS3/PS4 like MPEG-4 ASP. The extension of the both files would be the same like” .MP4” but both encoded with different methods.
