PMS issue

[DaHatTrick]

I am not able to even go on PMS it says no settings for now, what do I do?

When I click on PMS or any other video streaming file it says no settings for now can anyone help me? Is it because my PS3 isn't currently hooked up to the Internet?

I downloaded SharkHunter's current version of PS3 Media Server, before that I was unable to download pmsencoder it was the file failed. Now when I click on PMS or VLC it says no settings for now. How am I able to fix it?

You can't.......there are no settings for VLC 'for now' just as it states. I believe the same goes for all engines in the Web streaming section in that white box.

I believe only the top Video Streaming engines have any kind of settings options.....ie. MEncoder, tsMuxer, AviSynth engines

EDIT: the Audio File engines have a limited setting config option as well. Most engines other than Video File engines are not configurable.

So do I give up on this whole PS3 media server thing? Or what do I do?

Huh ? Have you actually tried streaming to a device ? Or are you hung up in the GUI ?

I don't think you understand the concept of this program. You make your settings changes in the GUI, then stream to a DLNA/UpNp compliant device such as a PS3, 360, Samsung TV etc.

Don't get hung up on the fact you can't change many settings for some engines. Change your Video File Engine settings ie. MEncoder and set your other settings on the other tabs, such as shared folders, network settings and such. Then use one of the many supported devices to stream to. PMS does most of the work to stream a 'friendly' format to the device.

I havent yet, I need to wait until christmas that is when I can actually use my PS3. My whole point in using this program is using media server is to watch veetle because I have a website to watch sports etc and I heard pmsencoder had to be installed. And to be honest I dont really understand anything with this, its all like a foreign language to me, I just want to like download something and it be done, but I understand it doesnt work that way and I need to do the work myself.


I really just want to know is, when I use my PS3 since I have PMS will it read veetle for me and will I be able to watch it? Thats all I am worried about
