It’s been quiet around PS3 Media Server for a while, but in October there was suddenly version 1.20.412, followed by 1.20.415 and recently 1.20.439. This program is written in Java dlna-compliant UPnP Media Server for Sony’s PlayStation 3. PS3 Media Server is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X and allows audio and video streaming to the PS3. More information about the possibilities of this program can be found at this page, which also shows some screenshots. Version 1.20.439 is released under the beta flag and is only available for download for Windows and Linux. Below is a list of the most recent changes that have been fitted:
