What is the best DLNA media server? I use Mezzo and it doesn't always show up on my PS3.

Kodi!

No, I meant Universal Media Server!

Thank you for your quick response. What I'm trying to do is "cut the cord" to cable and just have a high speed internet connection. Is there some app that goes from my computer to my TV? I have tried Universal Media Server in the past and didn't have much luck. That was a few months ago. Is it better now?

I never had connection issues with ums to my ps3,just make sure you allow ums in your firewall settings.

That surprises me I have never had it "not show up" on any devices in the last four or five years. The first two of those years were with a PS3.

Have you contacted Mezzmo's customer support? Their support is awesome.

If you've paid for it, it might be worth the wait for a couple of days when Mezzmo 5 comes out. I have been Beta testing it since December and it seems generally better and more stable than v4.1.3.

I don't use a PS3, but my I sometimes have issues with my HDTV and Seagate media player. It's probably an IP conflict as discussed in this thread http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread.php/6018-PS3-won-t-find-Mezzmo-as-a-media-server, both devices are set to dynamic IP. A restart of Mezzmo solves the issue.

I downloaded Mezzmo 5.0. It looks great. Thank you all for your help.
