Can the PS3 play .mp4 files from data disc?

[monkeytap]

so im not sure if this is where this thread belongs, but hopefully someone who knows the answer will find it :-)

I have about 60 DVDs ripped onto my hard drive (shhhh ) so I can play them without changing discs and all that. if I burned these movies (.mp4 files) on a single blu-ray disc, and popped it in the ps3, would it be able to play all of these movies?

my intuition says it should....but does anyone know the answer? I guess I could test it first with a data DVD.
