Homebrew - PS3 Media Server v1.04 - Image 1

If you're tired of TVersity, or are simply looking for a good program to stream media files to your PlayStation 3, then you can try this app out.

PS3 Media Server is a program from shagrath that allows you to transcode and stream media from your PC to your console.

It's only a few months old but it's already gotten a lot of progress. Here are the latest features and changes implemented in the program:

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
Fixed LPCM seeking issue
Fixed regression with PicasaWeb images feed
Changes in subtitles loading / Fonts support (Default/ASS/Embedded Fonts)
Fixed channels order with tsMuxer engine's DTS->AC3 option
Transcode buffer wasn't fully released after end of video
Fixed bug with shared folders selection on Windows
Fixed periodic alive messages sent to ps3
Better dvr-ms media info retrieval
Updated ffmpeg/mplayer/mencoder/mt builds on Windows and OSX (slight H264 speedup for singlecore)
Buffer issues with transcoded audio files lasting more than 10 minutes
Fixed RSS parsing with some feeds

Hi!

I'm testing this software (v1.03) - 3 weeks.

After 2 days of sharing I've uninstalled all other servers ( FUPPES, TVERSITY) because it s the best server I ever saw.

I can run even HD films in 1080p on my PS3.

Fully satisfied.

No problem with connecting - working just after first run.

If somebody has connection problems - check firewall.

What is the use of this? WMP10 shares files/folders anyway so I cant see a use for it.

If you use Windows you dont need this. its totally useless. Maybe for Linux but this is a windows program.

This plays MKV's and Displays srt sub-titles. WMP does not display subs or play lots of files. This will encode videos on the fly. All WMP does is play vids with codecs that ps3 already plays. This allows you to watch ALL kinds of vids.

This program is superior to Windows Media Player due to it's transcoding capabilities and other features.

I like that is can also read zip and rar files meaning I can read my comic book cbz/cbrs as folders of jpgs on the PS3 without having to unpack them first.

Version 1.04 seems a bit problematic to me but 1.03 was running just fine.

Also it's kinda nice to not see Microsoft appear on my PS3 media functions

PS3 Media Server is far superior to TVersity in many ways as mentioned before me here in the comments.

- PMS can do transcoding on the fly of .mkv (Matroska container - search wikipedia for info) _with_ 5.1 audio + subtitles. That is not possible with TVersity unless you feed your files through mkv2vob first, which takes hours if you want subtitles.

- You can change some settings via the XMB without moving over to your computer like with TVersity.

- There is no need to scan all the files in the folders you want to share, and the shared files are automatically updated in close to realtime.

That's just what I noticed after a few minutes.

Kudos to the author of this program. I think you just stole some TVersity "customers".
