streaming to ps3

[hbk409]

I used to be able to stream media to my ps3 using tversity, for about the past 2-3month I have been having a problem were it keeps saying no server found. About the time I started having problems I reformatted my computer. So I dont know if its and issue with my computer and tversity or my ps3, I believe I have everything set up the same way as before however I cant stream anything.

any help would be greatly appreciated

You have to make sure all your settings in WMP are correct - to share folders, etc, or the PS3 won't see it.

There was a pretty good tutorial online - if I can find it again, I'll come back and post it.

If you reformated your PC, you should take the time and start the process over from the start on both the PC and the PS3, something is probably wrong in the settings, and a fresh start should fix it.

You need to check your firewall settings (if any) and your router settings. Also make sure you have the updates for WMP11. Although there are better media servers then WMP11, it works fine for various media that it can play locally on your PC. Lots of basic advice available on the forums of PlayStation.com.

Orb works pretty good for my wii... but it's not as great as some other options since it does require online steams, not local lan streams 100% of the way.
