Hi folks, when I started the project, my main purpose was to get a better interface happening for the ps3, the interface is now built and I'm currently touching up elements with the graphics. After doing some more testing I discovered that there were some files in my collection that would not play on the playstation3, I was getting the famous o file not supported. So I began to think, perhaps I do need the use of a media streamer/transcoder... After further study and testing I am now pleased to announce that the interface I'm currently building now supports the ps3 media streamer. So where am I at? well, these are the things I plan to wrap up...
1. full flash adding/updating of media files (right now everything is running through a assortment of java and asp scripts that dynamically build the xml catalogs)
2. finalize the user interface(graphics wise)
3. The genres drop lists needs to be automatically generated from the xml, right now its hardcoded into the Flash files(you'd be stuck with the genres I code in)
4. Thumbnails... I'm debating this one, and i think the final version will still depend on you folks getting those from the internet yourselves.
5. finally I would like to run everything from a portable server and get away from using iis for winxp. Ideally this whole package should run from a thumb drive that you can move from computer to computer.
