Thread: [Update3][Win/Mac/Linux] PS3 Media Server v1.40.0 Beta 2!

Here comes PS3 Media Server for Mac OS X/Windows/Linux v1.40.0 beta 2. Yes, it’s beta because not much testing has been done on this build. And we’re not quite sure what has changed in this version.



Description:

Built from SVN r811.
Released as BETA because many code changes haven’t been widely tested yet.


Excerpt from the official site, below.

Upgrade Notes:

For 1.23.0 and above:

• Just uninstall the older version and install newer one

For versions prior to 1.23.0:

• To retain your old settings you may have to copy your old config file/s to a new directory.
  To find out where the new directory is on your computer, run the program and go to the Traces tab and look on the 14th line, the line that says "Profile directory:", that is the folder your config files should be saved now.
• If you use the "media library / cache" option you should reset it.

Maybe because there isn't enough MAC users willing to test/interested in this LOL

I'll keep the updates coming

I don't mind testing. I am strictly a mac user, although I have windows when needed.

As promised! Updated: Windows, Linux, and OS X versions of Beta 2 are now available! Check main post for details!
