I'm using Red Kawa File Server to download MP4s from my PC to my PS3, but since the last update a couple days ago (2.20?) whenever I try to download an MP4 instead going to download screen ("Press Start to download") it goes to a screen that says "Buffering" (which I think means its trying to stream) and a few seconds later says "File is corrupt." Is this happening to anyone else? And if so, is it likely a bug that'll be fixed next update or some new anti-piracy move by Sony?

Edit: I can still download and play MP3s just fine, so I know its not a Red Kawa issue. Unfortunately I don't have videos in any other format besides MP4 to test if its just that.

Looked into it. Apparently Red Kawa is dead with firmware 2.2 so it was nothing on my end. If anyone else has this same problem, I found something called HFS that works just the same (and still works).

Instead of pressing X over the file press trianlge, then file (right side of the screen), then save target.
