can someone tell me what is the keyint stand for?

BTW, my settings is

keyint=10:vqmax=2:vqmin=1

almost lossless quality, i watch it using my 32" full HD LCD TV, quality are good even in close distance, mostly i use it to watch anime, the colour are good, but depends on the quality of the video also

so far i'm connect my laptop to my router using LAN cable, then PS3 connect to router via wireless, most of the time is lagless, just set the buffer size to 600, abit slow when startup, but really enjoy it after that.

however, some anime the audio and video are out of sync, and some anime cannot be played, dont know what's wrong, even with different kind of decoder in the PMS

since the day i use the PS3 media server i didnt get frequently disconnect problem, but how did the media server disturb the PSN connection? media server suppose to be run in local area right?

you got VSfilter plugin? try to use avisynth decoder, i can watch my anime in .mkv format with sub, no problem at all.

however, some format the sub will gone after transcode.

i've installed window 7 few days ago, so far no problem in network, but dont know why when i watch my anime in .mkv format using avisynth on PS3, the audio play at a super fast speed with high pitch sound, but when pay on mencoder everything seems fine, any solution?

you hardly will see avi and mp4 lag in PS3 media server because it doesn't need your PC to transcode it, your PC will just pass everything to your PS3 and let it do the job, thus it is faster.

but i think the max resolution for wifi transcode with good quality while not lag would be 720p, wired connection is always the best

yes, you can fast forward the video, but only 10x maximum, if you want you can go to specific timeline of the video

yes, it owns!! after i got PS3 and PS3 media server i never want to watch anime and movie on my laptop anymore, PS3 + LCD TV FTW!!

me too, while i was watching Shinjuku Incident with DTS audio, just few mins after playing the movie is start to lag, then i pause it for 1mins it play smooth through out the movie, but somewhere till 75% of the movie it lag again, so i just pause it for 1 mins again.

but i think is because of the DTS audio is using too much bandwidth

me too using wired and stuttering when playing .mkx file with .dts stream, 1 solution is to mux mkv video to avi, then problem solve since the audio stream in avi is mp3 or aac.

some solution you can use here

1. change to wired connection for more bandwidth
2. decrease transcode quality in media server
3. better CPU (somehow i dont think this is quite related)

before this i use wifi transcode, then the anime/movie is playing the opening and ending, shutter will always occur.

after i changed to wired connection, transcode settings set to highest quality with no quality lost, it play smooth as silk

PS3 support gigabit LAN? i thought only 100mbps?

did you try transcode > <filename> > Mencoder alone?

dont know what happen on my PS3/media server

after i press the video i want to watch, the media server on my laptop straight crash and exit

it will be slow, but you can pause the video and let it buffer so you can enjoy smoother video.

PS3 doesn't support N also.

actually wired connection is already sufficient to do the job, i think some of the stuttering problem is from the software itself

now i use the new beta version and sometime i play video halfway then it play at hyper speed, and the timeline keep decreasing, while the audio is playing like normal

my media server running fine in window 7, if your media server crashed after few mins or few secs, then is most probably the java version you have on your pc

that day after i updated to the latest java version, the media server stop working, need to revert back to v.

use the term PMS is a bit weird for me

PMS = Premenstrual syndrome

i'm a guy la, just suddenly think of it

to revert back to old java, just download the previous version of java from java website, check their archive, revert back to previous version is the same as install to new version, quite flexible

rmvb suck...

if you want to trancode rmvb, try go to Transcode Settings > Common Transcode Settings > Force transcode for the following extensions, then type .rmvb,.rm, i think it works for me, but i hardly play rmvb file, but sometime will have audio out of sync problem, so play around with the A/V sync until you get it right.

given the same file, let's say video stream of 480p, 16:9, but one is avi and the other is rmvb, avi give better picture quality compare to rmvb on my TV, the picture in rmvb is pixalated and hurt my eyes.

depends on what audio stream is in the movie you are streaming, if AAC should be no stuttering

at first i include my music library in the share folder in pms, then stutter occur which they normally dont, and the startup time for pms is too long, go to website and check they say might be caused by the long list of files and folder needed to load, so i stop sharing the folder and now my pms back to normal.
