Have you ever wanted to just sit on your couch and watch YouTube on your TV? Well, it’s now possible via YouTube for Television, available through your PLAYSTATION 3. Currently in beta, the TV Website provides a streamlined interface that enables you to discover, watch and share YouTube videos on any TV screen through your PS3.

Simply open up the Web browser on the PS3, and enter the following URL: www.youtube.com/tv (note: this link will not work from a PC or Mac, only from a PS3) and hit enter. Now you’re good to go! You’ll notice a new YouTube interface that allows you to watch videos in full-screen. With enlarged text and simplified navigation, it makes watching YouTube on your TV as easy and intuitive as possible. Here’s a helpful video that guides you through the process:

We’re working closely with the YouTube team to make a more PlayStation-centric version of the YouTube TV Website page accessible from the lefthand menu bar (the YouTube button currently takes you to our branded channel on YouTube). So stay tuned for that and in the meantime grab a cold one and sit back to enjoy your favorite videos on the big screen!

Happy watching,
Ginger Kraus

I use to just zoom in on the image and make it full screen. I'll have to check it out to see what the difference is.

THe PS3 could do full screen videos since the last patch.

However, I think what Xtop is showing, is that youtube has a fullscreen interface for PS3 users.

BTW - Zooming, and "full screen mode" is the same quality. Doesn't matter one bit what you do.

GOOD question! Has anyone tried it? I'm being lazy today and haven't turned on either of my PlayStation's...

So I guess we get our own interface that at least shows that alot of ps3 users must navigate there for them to go out of there way to make a ps3 interface.

what I liked about it is that it fills the screen properly, why isn't there a similar version of the PlayStation site? Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.
