You can see your PS3 directly through WMP, or at least through the corresponding Windows menus that pop up when you are setting up sharing. You have to tell Windows to allow sharing with the PS3, and likewise media sharing has to be enabled in general.

Streaming can be a big headache, as your firewall/anti-virus can be very tempermental. You will most likely have to edit setting in your firewall/anti-virus to get things working.

Having a router further complicates things and you will have to unblock it there. This varies widely based on your router, so you should look up the instructions online accordingly. I was able to get the media server working through WMP but not through Nero, but that was because Nero Scout got fucked up somehow.

In all honesty, if you have an external HDD, use that to transfer stuff to your PS3. Its way less of a headache.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
