So is "Vuze" considered P2P software?

And if it is are there any suggestions for something less harmful to stream from my computer to my PS3? (I have Play - and I have all kinds of problems with it - so I had switched to Vuze - but now I am thinking that is a bad plan;(

Wizzy2k5,

If you're going to quote the TOU, please quote the appropriate section. In this case the appropriate section would be:

We will not support or allow the discussion of any P2P programs, except for their removal.

Since it appears that KatrinaF is asking for help in finding an alternative to a P2P program, I see no need to close this thread. In addition, it is not really your place to advise a Geeku student on what they should be doing.

Katrina, I can't answer your question, as I don't use this application, but perhaps someone else can. While we can't offer any P2P alternatives, perhaps someone can assist you with Play. What problems are you experiencing with it?

I guess you are just streaming media?
Try PS3 Media Server.

If that won't work Wikipedia might just help.

Still, I don't see any problem if you use Vuze solely for streaming content to your PS3. File sharing is a completely different story though.

[KatrinaF]

Yeah I am just streaming media. If there is any question at all as to whether it's classified as p2p or not I am getting rid of it. There is no point in opening myself up to that. Playon seems to eat up all my system resources even when it's not actively streaming. I bought it before it went subscription. I may try digging it back up and installing it on one of the other 2 systems to see what happens.

[KatrinaF]

I am going to check out this ps3 media server first though - it looks like it might be more what I am looking for than Playon anyway!

[KatrinaF]

On the chance anyone ever lands on this page after searching - there is actually a way to stream to the PS3 using Windows Media player without any third party software at all!

Here is the link
