PS3 Media Server app is a DLNA compliant uPnP media server for the PS3. You can stream or transcode pretty much any kind of media file with it. Developer shagrath has added a lot of changes and features in this release, so we're gonna go straight to the changelog here.

Changes / Features

• Customize encoding parameters (along with default ones) for any given container/codec/property combination (purpose: A/V sync, playback issues, and tweaking for advanced users)
• Ability to select networking interface
• OSX 10.4 Tiger support (Intel only)
• Settings reorganization
• M4V now streamed by default, you have to enter the #Transcoded# folder to force the transcode (like AVI files)
• WMA now transcoded by default
• Italian localization
• WINDOWS ONLY: Use (only with 720p/1080p H264 content) an experimental mencoder build for multicores
• New OSX icon (thanks to Jakob Karlsson)
• Added a "Skip/Force transcode extensions" option added if default settings don't suit you
• Possibility to only remux AC3 audio tracks and not reencoded them

• DVD images are listed in the media library
• Fixed RSS parsing for Youtube and maybe other feeds
