media server for Linux/PS3 - Blu-ray Forum

jdc115 · 12-24-2007, 02:00 AM

After a month of trying to troubleshoot why my installation of Windows will crash to a BSoD after SP2, I decided to give up and switch my desktop to Linux.

I am now running Denian 2.14.3 and would like to find a media server to install so I can stream files to my PS3, does anybody have any recommendations?

I use Ushare from my Ubuntu 7.10 machine.

I haven't used it extensively, but it streams MPEG2 video without issue.

Should be a snap to install and configure. http://ushare.geexbox.org/
