The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Windows Media Player will not find Playstation 3 to share media

Asked by dougied1982 in Programming for Game Consoles, General Multi-Media Software, Windows Media Player

Tags: , , ,

Hi Everybody,

I am having major issues with Sony PS3 and its Media Server. To be honest I think that it is on my PC's side.

I want to stream the video and music from my PC to my PS3, but every time I cannot see the PS3 in Windows Media Player to allow it access. Every time I try to find the Windows media server from the PS3 it says "no media servers were found"

The two devices are connected to via LAN cable to router as below
Desktop:

Win XP SP2
Static IP Address


Router (Buffalo WHR-G54S)
Ports 3690 forwarded with PS3 IP address (for Win Media Server)


PS3
Static IP Address


I have tried this with different software, Nero, WMP11, TVersity etc etc. None will recognise the playstation.

For example in WMP11;
When I click on Options/Configure Sharing/Share my media  nothing comes up where the PS3 should come up as an unknown device.

I have went through the playstation forums and everybody who experienced the same problem installed TVersity and resolved the issue. I tried the same...no joy.  I have also tried all the other advice they have been given but again no joy.

I do not even have access to a laptop otherwise  would try and do it from it to see if it was my desktop that was the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been messing with this for a couple of weeks and am either going to pull my hair out or throw  the PC out the window lol.

thanks very much
