PS3 Media Server is a DLNA-compliant UPnP media server. Originally written to support the PlayStation 3, it has been expanded to support a range of other media renderers, including Xbox 360, various Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, and Sony televisions, as well as portable devices. Written in Java, it streams or transcodes many different media formats, with minimum configuration. The FFmpeg and MPlayer packages support the PS3 Media Server. A currently maintained fork of PS3 Media Server exists as Universal Media Server.
