Sooo what media server program do I use to stream to this app??

 

[calder]

Now release a damn remote already!

 

[Infernostew]

Anyone know how to connect this to your Mac?

 

[Fusebox]

Amazing, I gotta remind myself to apologise to the "Any chance of DLNA for PS4 at E3" thread guy, I thought that was a pipe dream.

 

[martino]

OMG sony i need to sleep but you keep delivering

 

[Karsha]

Just tried streaming some MKVs and MP4s from my Plex Server using Media Player, first time I tried opening a video it had an error but the every other time worked perfectly (first time may have timed out waiting on the hard drives to spin up). Didn't do exhaustive testing but seemed to be quick and actually works. Will probably stick to the Plex app but native support for more codecs should mean the server won't need to do transcoding.

Just bought a tiny 32GB USB drive for music on the PS4 too .

 

[fritzo]

Can I use Plex as a media server?

 

[Replicant]

The conference was so packed they couldn't even announce this. But YAY!

 

[DeviantBoi]

Is it too much to ask for srt support?

I really hope Plex Media Server works, because that's the popular and extremely user-friendly DLNA server right now.

https://plex.tv/

I'll be trying it a little later tonight. TV's tied up at the moment.

Still want remote support!

 

[3rdamention]

Truly a megaton.

What? My number 1 request, no way

 

[Arkham]

Canada too? I haven't been prompted to download yet

Yep. I just downloaded it. It shows up beside What's New and your latest games.

True but UMS is like 2 min work and also very very easy to use.

 

[JJD]

So how's the streaming quality of Plex compared to just hooking my macbook pro through HDMI and seeing a video on VLC?

Never tried DLNA...I use cables, I'm old... :-(

 

[fritzo]

Its up for Download

If you used something like PS3 media server, SRT function is built in, just turn it on in the settings on your PC....

Its up for Download

Link to the store please
or say the app name so we can search for it thank you.

I started having MKV issues with UMS and the PS3.

Also, Plex's sorting and collection are excellent.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

So I use MediaLink on my Mac to stream to my PS3, but it isn't working on the PS4 (it can't find any media). Is there a good alternative for Mac that will let me use DLNA for the PS4?

Edit: I guess in the time of my posting someone recommended Universal Media Server. I guess I'll try that.

 

[fritzo]

Icon just appeared on my XMB. just downloaded it.

 

[muteki]

Mixed results using both UMS and Plex.

Once they get time to sort out the device profiles everything should be good to go.

 

[Tainted]

I have done all the WMP troubleshooting...damn thing wont play any media off my PC, same error "Cannot play media" or the icon next to the file/s changes to a broken symbol

Time to install PS3mediaserver

Might need to allow your PS4 access through your PC's firewall.

 

[Mobius 1]

The Media Player is up. Restart the PS4 if you don't see it.

 

[bobawesome]

The best thing Sony has done this E3 and it wasn't even at the conference.

 

[IAmRandom31]

I've been drowning in gaming bliss. Is there anything else? PNG screenshot support? Anything like that?

I started having MKV issues with UMS and the PS3.

Also, Plex's sorting and collection are excellent.

Use PS3 MS for about 5 years then started also having problems development and support stopped for PS3 MS and UMS has been working like a charm for me better support and far more stable for mkv.

The Media Player is up. Restart the PS4 if you don't see it.

Thanks for that

 

[KalBalboa]

Works like a charm.

 

[andrerobot]

No HEVC? That's disappointing.

And no VP8/VP9 either.

 

[PeregrinSe7en]

does this mean custom wallpapers?

 

[ODDI]

Awesome it works doesn't support .gifs tho :/

 

[Max Steele]

What?! There's no .rm support!?! I hate you Sony!

 

[dragonzdogma]

How do you guys use dlna?

Could someone give me ideas?

 

[Face it Tiger..]

so happy

 

[killertofu]

How does this work if I have a Mac? Pls halp, I don't want to buy Plex

 

[Tainted]

Doesnt seem to fix it. Ps3mediaserver is also having the same issues.

Ill try USB

 

[Snake29]

I can confirm that it also works with the Vita in remote play!!!

Anything that doesn't require Java?

 

[Sylver]

No NTFS usb HDD support.
just tried

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I was kinda hoping for a firmware update announced. I'll settle for this though.

 

[TheVampire]

Will DLNA let me stream via wifi videos from my PC to PS4?

 

[Dugna]

Dude, the new media player plays freaking MKV files. That's like the majority of fansubbing for anime right there, hell to the yes

 

[Bunta]

Lame thing I discovered, media that isn't in a folder doesn't show up.

 

[Yazuka]

A shame it doesn't support subtitle files. And a lot of avi files I tried doesn't work. But everything is smooth so far. Good stuff.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

NOOOOOOOO

I finally get folder support for my NAS, but then it still sees the hidden Mac ._ files. FUCK! It also couldn't play a LOT of the MKVs. Looks like this media player needs a lot of work like the Xbox One one.

 

[martino]

But what about subs?

no subs lot of video audio not playing for me

 

[fritzo]

works with Plex.

 

[Van Owen]

No dts makes it sort of useless anyway. Plus cinavia.
