Are you talking about this one? http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/downloads/list
Been using it for a couple of months comparing it to Tversity.before switching to WDTV.
-
yup, sir, anu name nun program? can you also provide the link? thanks! ;D
-
thanks for giving the link
I've tried it, works great
no need for popcorn hour na nga or WD...heheh thanks
-
thanks sir! will try it later. ;D
-
Nice. Downloading the app for my macbook and will try it later.
-
Hi, I like to to this ans install in my PS 3. Can you post exact procedures. Im not good at computers. Im using windows XP OS at home. thanks.
-
Download the app for Windows XP.
Install and then run the app.
Turn your PS3
Use the XMB and go to PS3 media server (under videos)
Browse your PC folders through XMB --> i think it's easier if you place the files you want inside C: drive (no subfolders)
Highlight and select and you should be good to go.

Been using my PS3 as a media server ever since I got it (April '08). Are you sure it can play MKV files? From my experience, the PS3 will only play formats that it can recognize.

Been using it with my Vista. Do I really need to download PS3 Media Server for Windows v1.03? Would it be easier, faster?

same question here.. can it play MKV files? tnx.

it just streams from your pc, for mkv files with subtitles...minsan too big yung font size especially kung custom font yung ginamit sa mkv...don't know how to resolve it yet

How do you use it with Vista, Sir?
-
nice! will try this out! thanks for the link!

Salamat sa HU ;D Able to read MKVs and H264 (.mts and .m2ts) perfectly.

Decided to install the media server. This is a better alternative to Tversity, Twonk, Nero Mediahome and Windows Media. It's simpler to use and it does recognize MKV files. What it does is transcode it in real time. I'm streaming my MKV copy of Resident Evil Degeneration right now. Only problem is that it stutters, which I was expecting from a real time transcoding. I think you'll need a pretty powerful CPU to really make this particular feature work flawlessly.

it works with vista and plays mkv
thanks dito di ko na need ng nmt ;D

Thanks a lot sir. The windows app XP means the windows ver 1.03 ?
-
pano ba settings para ma full screen pag nag stream?
-
Good... the only downside is the electrical power required to make mkv viewing / streaming good enough compared to a dedicated hardware device such as WD or NMT (like eGreat/PopcornHour/Novatron).
I also made this run on my PS3 (and PC) but switched back to the NMT.

-
^^ less power consumption.. biro nyo.. open na pc nyo.. open pa ps3/receiver... nmt ang final choice. ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
but for those who already have a ps3 and do not have a NMT, this is the choice, I think...
-
the other advantage is, if you have both an NMT and a PS3, you can place the other in a separate room. galing!
-
gumana na po ba itoh gaya ng kay sir switi? salamat..:)
-
it is working on mine. there is no harm trying it.
-
How do you use it with Vista, Sir?
My wife did the setup so I'm not really familiar with it. From what I remember, you just have to add the folders to be shared on the Winmedia Player 'media sharing' option.
-
kailangan ba nakakabit ba yung pc sa ps3? or wirelessly sya para maka-connect sa ps3?
-

No need to connect the PC to the PS3, bro.
The wireless router will do the trick ..... :D
-
Yep, for our case Linksys Router ;)
-
^ I use a Linksys router also. Xbox 360 naman ang media extender ko because it supports Windows Media Center.
-
hmmm...sorry po sa tanong ko so kung ps3 ----> router (wireless) -----> pc kahit wired or wireless okay lang po?
salamat po..:)
-
^Sorry...hindi ko masyado maintindihan ang set up mo.
Here's how I am set up:
PC/Laptop --> router (wired or wireless is ok)
router --> PS3 (wireless will work)
*make sure to configure your wireless network on your PS3
Just run PS3mediaserver on your PC/Laptop
Open your PS3 and use the PS3 XMB to browse folders in your PC/Laptop
Select the file you want to play and you should be good to go.
-
Will this work on more than one PS3 in a network? ??? ??? ???
-
interesting find, ill mark this for reference later tonight...
do you need powerful PC to transcode the mkv on the fly? what is the final output, mpeg? :)

After reading this thread yesterday, i tried last night. Downloaded the softwares n codec and spent 2 hours trying to fix
why the ps3 does not diplay the ps3 media server in the xmb, finally i disabled the firewall and bam! it worked ;D
Used it to stream wwe royal rumble hd file with no problems. Having problems with mkv files though as my watchmen trailer slows down when playing thru my ps3..
-
the other advantage is, if you have both an NMT and a PS3, you can place the other in a separate room. galing!
how can i stream from my NMT to my PS3? any other gadget needed for the streaming?thanks!

new version!
mercredi 4 février 2009
v1.04
Hi,
here's the new version!... some explanations about the new "video copy" feature: in previous versions, you couldn't copy any transcoded videos on your ps3, due to a virtual size of 94gb... now it's possible, with this option enabled. Be careful: if you want to use that feature, it's recommended to set a reasonable bandwidth limit in transcode options, because transcoded videos will have no fixed size, and you could fill up your ps3's hard drive pretty quickly with default settings !
PS3 Media Server v1.04 for Windows/Linux/OSX
Here's the changelog:
- Changes / Features
. New option to enable video copy on ps3
. RAW images thumbnail support: CR2/CRW/PEF/NEF/ORF/SRF/MRW/DNG/ARW/RAF
. New extensions supported: SHN/M2V/M2P
. tsMuxer engine can now mux or reencode in AC3/PCM all audio tracks in real time
. Add the experimental mencoder build for multicore on OSX
. DVR-MS remuxer now included by default in Windows package
. New translations: Spanish (thanks to Jose from playstationhoy.com), Dutch (thanks to Vincent Meylof), German (thanks to Jeuki), Russian (thanks to Peter Klassen), Polish (thanks to Maciej Bocian), Greek (thanks to Alexander Polichroniadis), Portuguese (thanks to Hugo Sousa), Finnish (thanks to Ove Sentlig), Norwegian (thanks to Ball80 and Topguy), Swedish (thanks to Dusan Ilic) and Japanese (thanks to Yu)
- Fixes
. tsMuxer's AC3/LPCM encode/muxing + Mencoder's LPCM remuxing now working on Linux

are you streaming via wired or wireless network? if wireless, di kaya ng ps3 pag stream ng 1080p (it gets choppy) . . . best also to convert the mkv files to VOB via mkv2vob

Hi. In the Transcoding settings tab, there is a drop down menu on the video quality setting. You can select a lower quality video that can be supported by your home network.
I use a WiFi -G network at home so I have to select a lower quality. Wifi can't support the high bitrates. If you want the best quality, suggest you wire both your PC and PS3 to the router directly. There are several options on the quality settings, so choose the best that will remove the stutterring.
thanks

not sure if this is the right forum.. just a quick question
Would a PS3 be able to read a "mac extended (journaled)" formatted External Hard disk?
thanx for the reply!
-
Buhayin ko lang ito. I can make a connection between my PC and my PS3. It works fine with Picture sharing. However, with the Video (Movie) it wot work for me. Is there any configuration? By the way can it Read MPEG4?
-
Hay...no reply! Anyway, I already configured my system. It is faster to connect your PC/laptop via RJ45 (LAN) cable it's fast!
