I recently wrote a guide going over how to use WMP and other products as media servers for your PS3. I have a few guides for Windows and Mac and comprehensive list of products as well as user comments, suggestions and then some. I'd appreciate your feedback if you have any additional reviews or suggestions on DLNA media servers. I hope this helps those that need it and thanks to everyone for contributing!

My how-to is located here - http://www.rbgrn.net/blog/2007/06/us...edia_exte.html

Well, I just simply use Nero MediaHome on all my PC's with the PS3 for streaming of content.

And, I also use Red Kawa File Server to transfer files from the PC to the PS3 hard drive.

It's really simply IMO.

Have you tried any of the other products? I had immediate success with simplecenter. I have a whole list of them on that link I put up top.

my ps3 has found the media server on simplecenter but when i click on it there is no files there, even though i have uploaded them all o the library

Are the files listed in simplecenter on your pc? Did you select the directories properly? Also, Did you try looking into the "watch folders" on your PS3 under your media server?

I'd play around with it a bit more.. You're close!
