Comments on Set Up A Linux PlayStation 3 Media Server (CentOS 5.2)
Set Up A Linux PlayStation 3 Media Server (CentOS 5.2) The Sony PlayStation 3 is a DLNA compatible device, DLNA is a framework where home electronics can share digital media and content seamlessly. This tutorial is a followup to the previous howto on Ubuntu. Given that I like most others use CentOS as their server distribution of choice, I find it fitting to run my DLNA server on it as well. Although several other open source media servers exist, I chose to use Fuppes due to its ease of use as well as built in support for transcoding.

Try this, it works like a charm : http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/
PITA for CentOS 5.3:

doesn't work correctly due to RPM dependency h3ll. Especially with mplayer and mencoder.
Does this allow proper playback of .MKV files on PS3? I am currently using ubuntu 8.10 with MediaTomb media server. It plays, and most importantly transcodes all of my videos for playback on my PS3 - with the exception of .MKV files. I would LOVE to have something working that can play .MKV's, because that is the format that most 720p downloads are packaged in. Would love to be able to watch in high def.
I have not used MKV's i will download one today and test will let you know.
After running, yum localinstall fuppes-0.7.2-627SVN.i386.rpm
I get this,
...
Error: Missing Dependency: libexiv2.so.4 is needed by package fuppes
Error: Missing Dependency: libx264.so.55 is needed by package fuppes
Error: Missing Dependency: libavformat.so.51 is needed by package fuppes
Error: Missing Dependency: libavcodec.so.51 is needed by package fuppes
Error: Missing Dependency: libfaad.so.0 is needed by package fuppes
How do I install these packages aswell ?
(thanks for any hints pointing in right direction :))
Having the same problem... any insight?
The dependency issue is that the package was built using specific versions of the dependencies. If you are using the new kernels and updates, you are at a higher level of the dependencies, thus it will fail. Options are: 1) Hope he is kind enough to update the rpm for us -- PRETTY PLEASE? 2) Hope he puts the svn up and you build your own rpm with the new builds of the dependencies 3) rollback your cent to lower versions -- NOT recommended
I am having the same issue - is there any resolution to this?
I know a lot of information from the article and thank you for your message~~
