How to Stream file from your Windows Network to your PS3 and/or 360
By tEChniiQue


If you want to watch videos, listen to music, view pictures, or any other media from your Windows home network on your PS3 and/or 360...this guide will get you there...

What you need:

A home network created within Windows
Router (Wired/Wireless or Combo)
Windows Media player 11 (Installed) - (Vista Users, it comes pre-installed)

Step 1: Ensure the console of choice is powered on and connected to the network

Step 2: Open Windows Media Player on your desktop/laptop

Step 3: In WMP11, select the drop down arrow under Library

Step 4:
Select Media Sharing



Step 5: Check the "Share My Media" option, then click o.k.

Step 6: The next window will display your console(s). XBOX 360s will be clearly identified on screen. PS3s will be displayed as an unknown device.



Step 7: Select the drop down under library and go click "Add to Library"

Step 8: Select "Advanced Options"

Step 9: Select the "Add" button to manually input various drives you would like shared over your network for your PS3 and/or 360 to stream from.

(Note: Just because you already have a Windows network established with shared folders and other consoles or computers can see them, Step 9 must still be accomplished.)

All Done!!

XBOX 360 Owners: Select the Media Tab and either Music, Pictures, or Videos. Use the "x" button so you can change the source and your PC should be an option.

Playstation 3 Owners: A Windows Media Player 11 icon should now be visible under Photos, Music, and Video.

ENJOY!!
