    N5200BR Pro and Playstation 3?

    Hi....

    I am considering purchasing an N5200BR PRO.....

    The documentation suggests that I should be able to use this as a media server either via the onboard(?) uPnP or perhaps via the TwonkyMedia module.

    Before I buy, I was hoping someone reading this might have be able to tell me whether or not the N5200BR PRO will with PS3 (either with uPnP or TwonkyMedia DNLA)?

    Even if it does work, are there any gotchas/caveats I should be aware of before buying?

    Thanx in advance.

    Chris Bradshaw.

    Re: N5200BR Pro and Playstation 3?

    Works fine. I use the twonkymedia module which is worth every penny for the license fee. MY biggest gripe is that the PS3 media interface is piss-poor at best. It works but its not intuitive or easy to use for anything other than picking something and playing it. playlist creation, queuing, etc etc... impossible or close to it.

    I try to keep the number of devices in my place to a minimum though so I just grin and bear it. I didnt want to keep the xbox just for media center so i ditched it.

    Good luck.

    The PS3 seems kind of slow to identify the twonky server at times, but be patient and it will see it.
