Tversity
Introi find tversity is best used on the ps3 when i first got the ps3 i was using wmp 11 but i could never get a consistent connection (im lead to belive its better wired than wireless), so i started using tversity which i had used before on xbox 360 before the divx/xvid patch was released everyone will have their own prefrences though of course and i recomend you try different applications and see what you prefer. alot of the info here is from the main site slightly more compact hopefully.
^how it looks on PC^ Main Features

Installationthis is the easy bit just go to http://tversity.com/download/ and get the latest version then
after its installed you will have to make sure that the executable MediaServer.exe located under the installation folder of the software (c:\Program Files\TVersity\Media Server by default) is allowed to accept incoming connections on the port used by the media server (which is by default port 41952).
now on the tversity website it says "Xbox 360 users will need to disable media sharing in Windows Media Connect, Windows Media Player 11 and in the Zune software (assuming it is installed on some computer on their home network)." but i have wmp 11 with sharing on and it works well i can see both wmp11 and tversity on x360 im just mentioning it incase . |
