KFurge FW 1.0.7.8-2 and uPnP with PS3

[Gizmo1007]

I don't have a ps3 but I have found twonky to work best with a number of media players and the Xbox360 so it should work with your ps3.

version 5.0 beta as it has transcoding built in.

Happy coding.

Gizmo, this afternoon I have looked at the beta offering of Twonky, but it apears to me there is no version for embedded devices as our Asus is. Maybe I miss something, but I only got a link to rel 4.4.4 rc 3, which I think is a beta for 4.4.4, not 5.0.
No problem for me though, I'm happy with 4.4.4.

I tried a million different things to get my router talking to the ps3 very well. It would see it fine but I never got high bitrate movies to stream smoothly. I never installed twonky on the router (I did build it on my mac though) that might very well be the answer.
for me, I ended up installing medialink on my mac mini behind it, it works like a champ.

just my 2 cents

ciao guys,

first of all thank you for your kind replies!

@mumsoft and Gizmo:
this weekend I will try to install twonky: the correct version is still Maxtor [Plus] version?

@Gizmo:
what is transcoding? does it means it transcode for example video to another format if it is not compatible to the connected device?
In this case I doubt our Asus box owns the power to do it

@etheric:
that was a good idea! Macmini costs 499euros now. Unluckly I already bought the WL700, so I want to try to get everything working with it. Also Asus has for sure a lower power consumption which is useful for a 24/7 powered device.

Sure.

Maybe. I had Mt-Daapd running that transcoded my .ogg music to .wav for the sake of my dumb Pinnacle soundbridge. No problem. But I could not pause & resume and missed some other functions. Now I have dismissed them both.
Here you can see what it can do natively:

I have streamed a DVD image (.iso) to my Ziova without a problem wirelessly, but I must admit it did not do that always smoothly. But wired showed no problem at all. Now I must apologize because I don't know much about how high the bitrate is. I do know that my Ziova can't cope with H264 (MPEG4) coded material. It all really depends on your environment.

A standard DVD A/V stream averages about 11Mbps.
