Personally I either throw the movie onto my usb and plug the usb into my dvd player or plug the usb into my ps3 and upload it.

Recently I've gone with the uploading to PS3 for everything. Reason is watching a movie on a USB thumb drive has some major negatives that really piss me off.

#1 - If you happen to only make part way through a movie and gotta continue next time fast forwarding is a major bitch. The first 20 mins or so forward at a fairly decent rate but after that it is SLOOOOOW as fuck and it's annoying sitting there waiting for it to slowly creep to wherever you need it to.

#2 - An even more annoying problem. If you watch movies with parts that have a really high bitrate. Usually happens more in actions movies. When it comes to those parts it jitters because the USB can't handle it.

So now I just upload everything onto my ps3 which solves all my problems but will try this TVersity thing soon.
