3.2 Moving Downloaded Videos to PS4

PS4 supports a wide variety of video formats, including MKV, AVI, and MP4.

As mentioned previously, StreamFab Pluto TV Downloader saves the downloaded videos in the MP4 format, which is suitable for PS4. After downloading, you'll need to transfer the MP4 videos to your PS4.

Before formatting, make sure to back up important files from your USB drive. At this point, your USB file system should be exFat or FAT32.

• After moving the video files into the USB drive, you can remove the USB drive and plug it into your PS4.
