Anyone here use Orb to stream videos to their PS3? I recently tried out this program and it's absolutely great for music and photos, but when I use the browser and try to stream videos, the choppiness renders them completely unwatchable.

Are there any settings I can set to make streaming video work? Is there a better program out there for streaming? Also I'm connected via a wireless connection, so is that the reason why stream video doesn't work right? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I have been using Orb for a long time now with my home PC and laptop and attemped to use it for my PS3. I had that same excact issue where is video is totally un-watchable.

I would suggest reading through this thread (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=879850). I haven't personally tried it it, but it seems like everyone likes it and I guess it works rather well. Good luck!

I was using it until Sony started DLNA, now I just use Media Player. I works better for me. Orb kept locking up my workstation.

Ahhh... thanks for the information guys. Good to know that it's more an Orb issue than my connection. Thank you for the link to the thread. I will try and see if I can stream video.
