I haven't had any issues with the PS3 playing animated menus on an AVCHD.
Really?? Am I high thinking that it won't play AVCHD menus? testing....
Still no. No menu. It just shows as a data disc on the PS3, but menu displays fine on my computer with the same disc. I have heard ruminations of work-arounds to solve this issue but haven't really explored it or confirmed their validity. Please teach me if you know how to get this to work Kevinicus.
Regarding animated vs. still menus, it doesn't make sense to me that a device would be particular to playback of still vs animated. Or if it is, then it probably has the same issue with the same menu on a bluray disc (unless some wacky vender specifically programmed their device to act in this biased fashion toward AVCHD. The only question should be whether AVCHD menus will or won't be supported by your device at all.
I do have an older ps3, but it doesn't seem like that should matter...
