Tversity V this? (Ps3 Related)

Post by ps3fan » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:51 pm

Hi all, i have been recommended to use this by a friend on another forum.

The problem i have is that i use TVERSITY at the moment, and the streaming of HD movies is kind of bad, stuttery and just unwatchable.

Is Twonky better? Can i watch a high def movie smoothly?
Or is High def streaming a bit hit and miss with this too?

I mostly stream HD movies, so this is a must for me

I'm looking for experiences of fellow Ps3 owners

Thank you

i had a few hd tivo files that were converted to mpegs, keeping the same bit rate. it seems that the ps3 is unable to play any of the converted hd tivo files. my ps3 returns a "file corrupted" message. however, my lower sd tivo files converted to mpegs play just fine.

so i guess the answer to your question is no. tversity seems better (at least it plays).

Personally, I never managed to get ant other of the free mediaservers to work in a consistent, reliable manner. That's why I bought twonky.
