Download the new version of Windows Media Player. Go to the Library and then to Media Sharing. Turn on your Sharing and then search for servers on the PS3 and it should bring it up. You will then have to give the PS3 the OK to access your information through the Windows Media settings. You should be all set to go.

Does the media have to be in the Public Folders? Or just in the WMP library?

The files I shared were all the folders in My Documents like My Videos, My Pictures and My Music.

My brother ran into an issue today where some of the movie trailers he downloaded from Stage-6 kept showing up as Uncompaptible Media, but we arent sure why because the Divx files should work fine now.

Hmm, I have all my media on a different partition of my HD. I sorta got them to be shared, but its not exactly how I want it.

I am pretty sure that the media player needs to recognize them as being in the WMP library before the PS3 will be able to access them. Not 100% sure on that, but I get the feeling that is the way it works.

I tried that and it won't work, I can get my 360 but not my PS3. I have WMP 11 and Windows Vista.

Download Simple Center and you can chose which folder you want to share.

Here's my problem...

When I go to options > library > configure sharing > share my media it hangs on share my media when I checkmark it then click okay. It just freezes up for a minute or so then returns with media sharing unchecked! I cannot seem to get media sharing to stay checked.

Any ideas?
