Media Sharing Problem with PS3?
Now I have done this in the past, but now it is not working. I can get SimpleCenter to work and communicate with PS3 and Laptop, so that tells me the setting are correct. I really want to use Tversity, or Windows Media Player 11 to share the media but neither are working correctly.
Needless to say I need some help. I dont know if its a firewall problem or what but like I said at one time this all worked. Same wireless connection, same wireless router, same house, same everything. I have looked at countless forums on how to fix this, and they all tell me how to set it up, and not how to fix the problem.
Problems
PS3 sees MWP 11 less than half the time
Laptop has not seen the PS3 for a few days
PS3 never shows up in the media sharing device window for me to allow it to share.
My wireless connection is 90% and its less than 20 feet away from my wireless router, through a wall.
Thanks for the help AJ, but VLC is not showing up on PS3 either. I dont even think its configured right. I just need something that is easy like WMP11 was the first time around. I guess I will just give up on it because its just not going to work.

It could be the router. Have you opened the correct ports? If so, you might need to add a firewall exception on Windows. The default port numbers should be in the PS3 documentation.
But like you said, you can still communicate with the laptop. Try VLC media player instead.
