Ditto on the PS3! I've got it streaming vids from the network, has a 250GB hard drive, accepts USB drives, streams Netflix AND plays games! What more could you want.....lol!
well since you ask! im not gonna stream my movies from my laptop to the ps3, i would love the ability to plug my mac formated drive into the ps3, but ill just have to change the format of my raid
So i bought the ps3 which is awesome but i formated my drive to fat32 and it won't read it the file structure oes like this. drive name: PS3, folder: /PS3, Folder: Video, movies are in that folder. also ps3media server didn't work either
Video needs its own folder within root, can't be in the /PS3/ folder. /PS3/ is only for backups.
File structure has to be exactly like this: http://ps3explained.com/advanced/folder-structure/
For ps3mediaserver...are you running it on windows or os x? On os x you just need to select the correct network adapter and save it.
If you can't get it working on windows there are a lot of dlna servers that compete with it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_UPnP_AV_MediaServers
try Twonky if all else fails.
