Can't stream mp4 to ps3

The same exact message came up, the popup as well

Aaah! Wait a minute... Are you using OSX 10.5 (Leopard) by any chance?
The binaries shipped with PMS have been compiled for OSX 10.6 or higher.

You can try to compile your own binaries for OSX 10.5 with the scripts in the contrib, just be sure to change the OSX_VERSION to 10.5 in build-pms-binaries.sh.

The latest version of PMS with binaries compiled for OSX 10.5 was 1.30.1. Another alternative is to download the binaries from version 1.30.1 and use those instead of the ones shipped with the latest version by copying them to "/Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Resources/Java/osx/".

Yes, I am running 10.5. I replaced the binaries with the binaries from 1.30.1 still no luck, I even uninstalled 1.50.1 and installed 1.30.1 and still nothing. This is really baffling me. I guess I'll have to convert all my mp4's to avi but mp4 looks so much better to me.

Nevermind, I had to force transcode for mp4. Thank you so much Raptor. I was ready to bite the bullet and get a WD TV. Thanks again

Does this apply to the windows version? How did you force the transcode for MP4? I've been having MP4 issues as well.

Under the transcoding settings tab, it should say "force transcode for the following extensions". Type mp4 in the box and restart PMS. Some of my mp4's still say data corrupted but the majority of them are working now.
