Is there an archive of all of the builds by any chance? I want to go ahead an install this new build, but the one I am using now has proven to be incredibly stable and reliable, so in case there is something I do not like about this new version, I would love to be able to revert back in necessary. I am currently using 1.20.409

Just curious really, I am sure this new build is just fine, but just in case. So will hold off on installing this one until I hear about the older ones being available Ironically I backed up all of the older installers, but somehow I do not have this particular one I am using now.

This should hook you up Larry. http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/downloads/list

Sweet. Thank you. (Y)

The new builds are perfectly okay, the main bug fix was just the seeking issue with PS3 FW 3.50.

Does it keep your settings when you install a new one? I did a whole lot of tweaking to the app (thanks to you I might add), and have gotten it to where everything works as good as it is going to work, so if it does overwrite the settings, I want to take some screenshots to know exactly how I had set it up. If it keeps all settings, then I am good to go.

Yes it remembers your settings.

That is what I thought, but just wanted to triple check. Will be updating it tonight when I get home from work then. :yes:

Is there any reason a 1080p .mkv file wouldn't play on my 720p TV? I can get audio when using PS3 Media Server, but no video.

The file itself as fine as it plays on my iMac.

Might be the computer is too slow to transfer, or it could be a option checked called Disable All Subtitles. I found that setting to cause my files to only display a blank black screen, but still hear the movie audio playing as if everything should be fine. If it isn't the subtitles, and you believe your computer to be fast enough, go into the Transcode folder, and try selecting another codec to play it instead of defaulted one.

The source computer isn't the problem (i7 iMac), but I'll try without the subtitles disabled.

Edit: That fixed it, weird. Why would disabling subtitles be an issue?

There is a bug at the moment with subtitles that are hardcoded into the video. If you disable them, it basically disables the whole picture. Didn't do it in the older version, but now something is causing it. I had the same issue, so I have had to be careful about what I watch lol.

Not many people have issues with it, as most people have a fast enough computer to transcode the picture and subs. Mine is only fast enough for Picture, so I found this bug very quickly lol. Still no replies in their forums about how to fix it or if they are even looking into it.

Worth it for the new icons alone, let alone all the other stuff :p Replaces the nasty green icon on the PS3 menu with an actual PS3 as well.

Source code is available, hopefully someone can compile for Mac.

The fastest speed I can get is 38 Mb/s on my wireless N connection (with my PS3 connected directly to my router). I see you have 93 MB/s, Audioboxer. Are you using a wired connection?

Yeah it's a wired setup, about 15m of cable for both PC and PS3 which probably causes slight loss in speed.

Bro, I went to your PS3 @ 192.168.0.6 and wow you have way too much porn on there! :whistle:

anyway, ps3mediaserver == best.media.server.ever. I love this app having just discovered it about a week ago but apparently I'll need to go wired for streaming. mkv/m2ts are just a bit choppy on my N connection.

Is it transcoding? I had a bit of choppyness at intervals when transcoding MKV's, pressing pause and play would usually fix it for a while. I starting using MKV2VOB to convert to file format before streaming which seems to work perfectly. That way I can also FF & RW whatever i'm watching. All working down 100mbit wired connection.

I've used this program before. It works great. Just wish it didn't half-theme the controls/widgets. You got aero buttons and tabs, but checkboxes, comboboxes, and one of the scrollbar buttons for some reason look like windows classic. Not sure what's going on with that. Wish they'd fix that, cuz it irks me.

I figured. I guess I'll try connecting my laptop via Ethernet cable.

    • Microsoft had to shut down 70+ GitHub repos after getting hacked, brings back some by Aditya Tiwari The self-replicating malware campaign known as Miasma took the open-source world by storm. It was reported that almost 73 Microsoft GitHub repositories were infected by the worm and had to be temporarily shut down to determine how attackers compromised projects and stuffed password-stealing malware in the code. These GitHub repos span across different organizations, including Microsoft Azure, Azure-Samples, Microsoft, and MicrosoftDocs. The malware enabled attackers to steal passwords and credentials when compromised tools were opened in popular AI coding apps, including Claude Code, Gemini CLI, VS Code, and Cursor. The security firm Cloudsmith, malware analysis site OpenSourceMalware, and 404 Media were among the first to report the hack. For background, Miasma is a variant of the Mini Shai-Hulud worm, open-sourced by the threat group TeamPCP. It started its journey by compromising a Red Hat employee's GitHub account to attack the @redhat-cloud-services npm namespace. Earlier this month, Microsoft Threat Intelligence reported that the Miasma attackers published 32 malicious packages across more than 90 versions under the @redhat-cloud-services npm scope to steal cloud credentials. The worm didn't take long to start attacking source repos directly rather than package registries. It is known to skip the npm registry entirely for several targets and plant malicious code straight into public repos like "icflorescu/mantine-datatable." The delivery approach was designed to weaponize AI coding tools. Miasma's malicious payload embedded into projects can trigger automatic code execution when the infected repo is opened in an AI coding tool or IDE. The list of affected projects includes "durabletask", a Python package compromised by TeamPCP a month earlier to deliver an information stealer designed for Linux systems. That said, Microsoft has begun restoring some repos affected by the malware campaign, The Hacker News reports. A company spokesperson stated the following: Microsoft will continue to investigate the attack. It has notified a small number of customers who may have removed their content from the affected repos. The company will reach out to customers again through established support channels "if anything further is identified that requires customer action."
    • Why is Opera doing this notification at all? They have their own extension store. They don't have to obey anything dictated by Google. Others like Brave and Vivaldi that rely on Chrome's extension store, not so much. Firefox is entirely separate as well with its own extensions store. I honestly don't understand why entire world is just insisting on Chrome. Like, why? It's a stupid fat browser with barely any functionality. But sure, it's installed on everything by default. I don't understand how people even use web that's filled with tracking garbage and ads all over the place.
    • Just for anyone reading, AdGuard (the free, standalone MV3 extension) is quite good now, a direct competitor to uBlock Origin Lite and much more built-out than it.
