mingeeta,does that mean that if i use tversity,i wouldnt need nero media centre anymore

[mingeeta]

yep tversity is the only thing you need. i had nero but found tversity faster and more stable

LOOOOOL NICE FAKER. Your using MPEG 1 format but you just named the file .avi on the end. Fuck you

[mingeeta]

Are you stupid or what you prat!! I said earlier if you care to read its transcoded on the fly. DO you not know what this means . It means that the avi file is transcoded realtime to mpeg, so F U you idiot.

[mingeeta]

Ive since moved to TVersity and can now play all files including mkv etc. Delete all your codec packs from your system and reboot. Download tversity and install the patch.

install the ffdshow (610) release. Also turn off AC3 in your FFDshow audio codec config after installation. Install Haali Splitter. Install AC3 filter and set it to 2.0 stereo. Reboot.

Tip: Dont try playing it on your ps3 until it plays in the tversity window.

Okay, just one question. How do you get thumbnail images for the video files?

[mingeeta]

the xmb does it automatically

[gArBgebIN]

[unoder]

ya'll know how many avi movies u can store on 1 disc?

pfft... tv shows, etc...

PS3 is the shit.

I can just play avi files on my ps3. Perhaps because of the latest update ;-)

To get this working what I did was setup Nero MediaHome FIRST and specified the folder, and then opened Nero Scout and Indexed the same folder. Started the server and it worked like a charm.

[EckoSmash]

[antsrider]

you can play all you movies use you tube download torrents in fact you can pretty much do everything you want except play games which is what the PS OS is for. we would all like access to the gpu, its not that supernice you can go out and buy a better graphics card for your pc for less than £100 now

[tregg13]

wrong avi can have many encodings it is not itself a set standard just a file type, divx, xvid, mp4 are the encodings, so if you are saying this file is encoded in mpeg4 then you are right

[tregg13]

in computer terms HD is just a resolution which old crt monitors could handle and even beat, so as long as the avi is in that resolution and the right format it will work fine

plus, linux in ps3 sucks ass, since you cant touch the super nice video card in your system(YET, they are trying to get sony to allow it!) so right now linux cant do much on ps3:(
