LOL. Sorry typo.

What is your computer spec? It better be some quad-core or overclocked dual-core from Intel because Tversity will transcode and stream the video to your PS3 in real time. Try streaming a video to the PS3 and go look at the CPU utilization on your computer.
-
First of all, don't immediately try to run HD movie files across TVersity when trying to optimise your setup. Find a simple low-res AVI file first and use that to test instead.
Also, tell us:
- what processor you're using and how fast it is (Core 2 Duo 2.4 Ghz, Athlon 64x2 2.0 Ghz, Intel 8086 40 MHz, etc)
- what operating system (Vista 32 bit Home Premium, Vista 64 bit Ultimate, XP, Ubuntu, GUNDAM OS, whatever)
- what kind of network (wired, wireless B, wireless G, wireless N1, etc) and
- how much RAM you have (system RAM, not video RAM).

My core is Core 2 Duo 1.6GHZ, OS is windows xp home edi 32bit, network is wired and my ram is 4gb

when streaming normal videos to my ps3, the cpu utilization is around 50%

Okay louiselee1991, it looks like your computer should be able to transcode with no problems, so that narrows down the problem to two possibilities.
Try these solutions:
1) Restart your computer. Turn off everything except TVersity. This means you also turn off whatever is running in your system tray including your firewall and antivirus. Now try and play the file. If it runs smoothly, start up your antivirus and firewall. If it gets choppy, maybe you should get an antivirus and firewall that doesn't take up so much memory or CPU time. If it still runs smoothly, start up your programs one by one until you have them all on or until the playback becomes choppy again. Take note of how many programs you have on; choose which ones you can live without and stop them from starting up.
2) If the video is choppy even when you've turned off all your programs in Step 1, this means that your video is simply too high-resolution. Play with TVersity's settings. If you can live with the drop in video quality, choose the Speed option over Quality in the Settings -> Transcoder section. Tell TVersity that your network is worse than it is (set Connection Quality to Poor, for example). Lower the transcoder resolution to 800 x 600 instead of leaving it at 1280 x 720 or 1920 x 1080. Play around until you get the best video quality without having the video stutter or until you like it.

I have an even worse problem, now when ever i want to watch full HD shows or movies, it says my file is corrupted on the PS3 or shows the require codecs will be showed and file corrupted and my TVersity will hang on my pc. I know its codec problem, any ideas on how to fix it?
-
1) Go Soviet; get CCCP here: Combined Community Codec Pack (http://www.cccp-project.net/)
2) Uninstall all the codecs on your computer. The CCCP site should show you how to do this (http://www.cccp-project.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page#Installation_Instructions). When you come to the settings screen after it's done installing, uncheck AC3 under Audio Decoders. Make sure all other tickboxes under Audio Decoders and Video Decoders is ticked. Click Next.
Make sure Enable MKV and Enable MP4 are ticked under Haali Media Splitter. Click Apply.
3) Go to "Start Menu -> Combined Community Codec Pack -> Filters -> FFDShow Video Decoder Configuration". In the scrollbox on the left, click on Subtitles. In the right pane, tick the following boxes:
- Subtitles (at the very top)
- Accept embedded subtitles
- Accept SSA, ASS and ASS2 subtitles
- Decode closed captions
Make sure all other tickboxes in the right hand pane is unchecked. Click OK.
4) Done.
What this does is change your codecs to a set that is more likely to work with virtually anything. Except for .OGM files, you shouldn't have any problems watching any file with TVersity after this...
... unless you want to watch an MKV with subtitles.
If that's the case, then you will also need to do this:
1) Get Gabest's MKV splitter here: Gabest's MKV Splitter (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=82303&package_id=84361&release_id=400404)
2) Copy the MKV splitter to <Windows>\system32\ where <Windows> is the path to your Windows installation (eg. "C:\Windows")
3) Right-click on your desktop. Select New -> Text Document. Name it "Change to Gabest.txt". Type the following into the text file:
@echo off
rem This switches to Gabest's Media Splitter.
rem Haali's doesn't work with TVersity, but Gabest's cannot handle some special characters.
echo "Switching to Gabest's Media Splitter"
regsvr32 /s <Windows>\system32\matroskasplitter.ax
cls
Rename your text file to "Change to Gabest.bat". Remember to change <Windows> into your Windows path as in step 5.
4) Right-click on your desktop. Select New -> Text Document. Name it "Change to Haali.txt". Type the following into the text file:
@echo off
rem This switches to Haali's Media Splitter.
rem Haali's doesn't work with TVersity, but Gabest's cannot handle some special characters.
echo "Switching to Haali's Media Splitter"
regsvr32 /s /u <Windows>\system32\matroskasplitter.ax
cls
Rename your text file to "Change to Haali.bat". Remember to change <Windows> into your Windows path as in step 5.
5) Done.
Now, whenever you want to watch an MKV file that has subtitles, just click on the "Change to Gabest.bat" file before you switch on TVersity, and click on the "Change to Haali.bat" file when you're done. Haali's Splitter doesn't work well with TVersity running MKVs and will cause it to crash, but Gabest's Splitter can't handle some multibyte characters.

Here (http://www.unplggd.com/unplggd/how-to/how-to-stream-any-type-of-video-to-your-playstation-3-046182) are a few more tweaks to try to get your HD video playing running smoothly:
6. TVersity Tweaks
* General > Media Sharing Device > Playstation 3.
* Transcoder > Always Transcode
* Use 1280x720 res, optimize Quality, Wired, and Minimum compression.
7. Further Tweaks
* Edit profiles.xml in install directory with Notepad.
* Search "Playstation" and look a few lines below it.
* Change the following from mpeg16 to mpeg2.
* video="video/mpeg2" photo="image/jpeg"
* onlineAudio="audio/mpeg" onlineVideo="video/mpeg2" onlinePhoto="image/jpeg"
* adjustReadStartPos="false", audioFailFutureSeek="false", and videoFailFutureSeek="true" />
For the files you're having problems playing, please list down the full filename of the files (eg. "[triad]_Detroit_Metal_City_-_03.mkv" or "[Keroro].113.[Xvid.mp3].[F1DD6453].avi"). Links to where you downloaded them from would also help.

Will try it later. Thanks for the help.

For the benefit of onephatcow:
If you still can't get your PS3 to detect TVersity after doing what I suggested, try this:
Under Start Menu -> Programs -> TVersity -> Tools, you will find an entry called "Share Media Command Prompt" or similar. Clicking that will open a command prompt. Type "mediaserver -debug" and press enter.
If you see "Debugging TVersity Media Server.", TVersity is now running in the command prompt window; do not close this unless you want to quit TVersity. Try getting the PS3 to detect TVersity now.
If you don't get the "Debugging TVersity Media Server" message or if the PS3 still can't detect it, I'm out of ideas. Try posting at the TVersity support forums (http://forums.tversity.com/).

will try that...been using their forums for all suggestions. So far still no luck. Getting really tired of the reset everything, enabling/disabling....might just go back to windows media sharing service.
Thanks though! If I can't get it by end of this week, I'll just live without it heheheh
