PS3 media server buffering

[Edgie]

I appreciate everyone who suggested getting this program its quite nice. Im wondering if there is a way to lesser the buffering while watching movies, I have a belking G router. Im thinking if I get a better router this wont happen.
Usually when you stream a movie online if you pause it, it helps with the buffering but that doesnt seem to work with the media server. Does anyone have any ideas on how to eliminate this.

Make sure you have the latest version, go in to transcoding settings and mess around with stuff until you get it working the way you want it. It has preset settings under 'Common Transcode Settings' > 'Video Quality Settings', you can also cap the amount of bandwidth it uses as well as set how many cores to use on the PC. Try lowering the settings to see if that helps.

Streaming HD stuff on wireless has been known to cause buffering issues and video stuttering, however if it is just normal SD stuff then it may be a problem with your router or the PC that is doing the transcoding.

I stick with wired for streaming through PS3 Media server and it works good. An N router would probably help though.
