[QUOTE="cybasoul, post: 47706, member: 976"] I tried out TVersity again and it performed quiet well against PS3 media server (ms) in some aspects. [b]PS3 Media Server:[/b] [b]- The good[/b] - Transcodes most lossy formats, though there was one it couldnt stream. Maybe its a codec problem - Streams lossless .ISO files - Basically good with everything except the bad listed below. [b]- The bad[/b] - Doesnt stream .VOB files - Uses a shit lot of CPU, mostly with lossless movies peaking at +90% on a 3ghz LGA 775. - Lossless movies freeze in the first couple of seconds of streaming if the video quality is set to max - Browsing through scenes of lossless movies sometime works if you have slaughtered a goat to ask for luck from your ancestors. And when it does work, you have to be patient and hope the ms doesnt crash. [b]TVersity[/b] [b]- The good[/b] - Nice looking user interface, but its in flash so it will have its minor flaws. - Streams lossless .VOB files flawlessly, as if they where AVIs. I was amazed. - Browsing through scenes of lossless movies...dont mention it, smashed the PS3 MS - CPU usage, hardly went over 5% - Basically excels where the PS3 MS fails [b]- The bad[/b] - Cant stream .ISO, it simply ignore them so you cant see them from a client media player. [b]Conclusion[/b] Im keeping both MSs only because I have a couple of .ISO DVDs that I will need the PS3 MS for. I will start backing up DVDs in .VOB format and use Tversity for those and everything else. [/QUOTE]
