How to Ps3 Read My Ntfs?

Why can't my PS3 read external USB in NTFS format? I have tried it in multiman mod (change cfw and prep usb fat to ntfs) after I tried to copy files to internal, it said failed or cancelled. I have also opened IRISMAN, but my NTFS USB is still not readable. As usual, in IRISMAN's file manager, there is text (root:ntfs), but on my PS3 there is none, only root. I need your suggestions guys, maybe someone understands this problem
 
My game format not iso bro, i have game file, can it be done?

No, it cannot be done! To play games stored on NTFS or exFAT, the game must be in ISO format.

PS3 games in folder format only work if they are mounted from the internal HDD, external disk in FAT32 or physical disc.

PS3 mainly supports FAT32 on USB storage devices. Other file systems are supported through the following trick:
- A homebrew like prepNTFS or prepISO scan the file system using custom libraries (NTFS, exFAT, ext2/3/4).
- Only ISO9660 image files are supported because they are *single entry points* that allow multiple files inside and can be mounted as a disc file system.
- For each ISO file scanned, a metadata file is generated in the internal HDD with the list of raw sectors used.
- When one of these ISO files are mounted, the metadata file is used to read the file sectors bypassing the original file system.
- The rest is handled by Cobra, the rawseciso plugin and GameOS. The backup managers only initiate the process.
