Windows: http://ps3mediaserver.org/files/pms-set ... 20.392.exe

Linux: http://ps3mediaserver.org/files/pms-gen ... 20.392.tgz

changelog between r392 and r381:

Major change: Could introduce regression issues, streaming/transcoding detection issues

MediaInfo support by default for PS3/XBOX, ongoing work on other renderers:

-> Faster XMB navigation (faster parsing, plus file list appears before thumbnails generation)

-> Proper auto detection of non supported files (PS3: Mpeg w/ DTS, Qpel/Gmc/H264 AVI files, Apple Lossless AAC files, 6 channels WMV, etc.)

OS X: Dropped official support for Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and Intel processors without 64bit support (anything older then Core 2)

Issues with some audio m4a and video mp4 files (wrong mime types)

Slowdown on FLAC media library scan

New version folks, highly recommend you update.

always wondered, is there a way you can change the icons of folders on pms?

IMG_0144.jpg

Do you mean that or the subfolders?

Subfolders are part of Sony OS, so PS3MS can't change them, the main icon is made by the creator of PS3MS and he says it will stay as it is/be what it's called unless he changes it.

Another new build, 396

MediaInfo64 inclusion in setup build / Better divx support

Better divx support sounds good for those who still watch SD content.

Need to build it yourself just now, but just use the automated SVN builder here (run bat file) - http://hotfile.com/dl/18246764/b0a74b1/PMS_SVN_Builder.rar.html

You can always check latest changes here - http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/source/list

Another new build, but compiled by Shagrath

Latest builds [2010-02-17] / Current revision: 397

Windows: http://ps3mediaserver.org/files/pms-set ... 20.397.exe

Linux: http://ps3mediaserver.org/files/pms-gen ... 20.397.tgz

changelog between r397 and r392:

- Fix no thumbnails mode

- DRM files detection

- MediaInfo64 / Better divx, avi/ac3, wmv support, also Skip/Force transcode management

If you're wondering why there's so many changes right now it's because he changed the way the whole program detects incompatible/compatible files for remuxing, making it a lot better, more efficient and faster.

Fixes: mp4 transcode/remux regression / Http server start regression / Mplayer thumbnails mode / Better DLNA (regarding totalmatches)

Mac: http://ps3mediaserver.org/files/pms-macosx-1.20.400.dmg

Hey does anyone have the template for custom thumbnails that's in this picture?

5a.jpg

It's no longer hosted on Mediafire :(

Does anyone else here use MKV2VOB!!!?? I still use my External Hard Drive!

I still use it when I don't want to keep my computer running all night. Basic settings do what I want since it's only temporary that they sit on my PS3.

Compiled build 404 for those that like bleeding edge - http://rapidshare.com/files/358106937/pms-setup-windows-1.20.404.exe.html

See changes here from 400.

    • After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in may areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
