1.08b5 - Will it allow me to stream .m2ts files to my PS3??
« on: August 25, 2009, 08:53:46 AM »

I can stream most everyting else, except for my Video Cam (Sony HDR-CX7) stuff.  I can put the memory stick in the front of the PS3 and it plays movie fine, but not in it's recorded 5.1 surround....stereo only.

I've looked into the fun_plug stuff....twonky...etc. but will I still have to do this, enable telnet, with this latest version.....1.08b5.   

Thanks

Yes it will.  Works great.  Better than with Twonky v4/v5. 

Unlike Twonky, 1.08 actually will tell the PS3 how long the .m2ts is so you can fast forward and rewind without waiting an eon for the stream to catch up and play again.

Sweet!!  This is the main reason I bought the 323 ... to stream Hi Def home movies to my PS3.  Anyone else doing this?  Any other issues I need to worry about?  Is the audio streaming/playing back  in DD 5.1?   To get the 5.1 sound on the PS3, I had to burn the video cam content to a DVD (AVCHD format).

Decoding the file is completely up to the PS3. We don't modify the files what so ever or choose what is or isn't streamed from the file. It is all up to the PS3.

If you're talkin streaming ripped Blu-Ray video, yeah you can do it and there are a few things you should know:

1) Video must be encoded in RAWAVC (*.264) format, High Profile 4.1 & I prefer a Quantizer of 22
* Note: you can do a raw rip of the video stream from disc, but it's huge!
2) Audio doesn't need to be re-encoded as long as an AC3 track is present, rip the AC3 track and if you like also rip the dolby digital plus or dts truehd stream
3) Mux them all into a .m2ts.  If you're including HD Audio, put the DDP or THD track on Audio 1 and then the AC3 track on Audio 2.  The PS3 doesn't care which audio track the AC3 is in.

Most importantly, you must be wired into your router to make this work, the PS3 only has wireless-G and can't sustain a high enough transfer rate to avoid stuttering and pausing.
