Does anyone know how to view adobe flash stuff on the PS3. I wanted to watch the episode(s) on NBC.com's website, but it said I needed a flashplayer and there is not one for the PS3. Am I missing something? Is there an easy workaround? Any advice would be most appreciated.
Regards, Dwinx

Yea from what I know there isn't, but I find it weird that you can view YouTube videos but not any other flash videos. Idk why Sony dosnt just allow all flash...
Errr edit I just remebered on the psp there is a setting to install flash in settings maybe ps3 has the same thing?

Ya I goggled it a bit and it sounds like it does not work. Someone wrote about hosting the video somewhere else and then picking it up on the browser, but that seemed very complicated.
Anyone else have a workaround? I guess I could hook up the computer to my HDTV, but I do not know what hardware I would need for that either. This doesn't seem like it should be so hard.

Well surely your HDTV has a DVI in? Id assume your computer has one too, so you just need a DVI to DVI cable.

What inputs does your TV have, and what outputs does your gfx card have?

DVI to HDMI convertor. Should then work, if your HD TV has a HDMI input (which it should do)

Ya I have HDMI and the usual red/white/yellow inputs. I am not sure what outputs my gfx card has. DVI to HDMI sounds like a good plan, although I need to find them cheaper than I have so far. A 600 console with web browsing that doesn't support flash seems like a bad deal. Is there a way to watch the show through my Wii instead?
