I tried to use UPnP/DLNA to watch videos from my PC on my PS3. After having to search online how to turn it on, I STILL can't get them vids to stream in HD. Only some blocky low-res crap. Streaming MKVs did not work either.

Maybe it's better on Samsung/Samsung combos. It's a great idea, though.

At the moment I am using Minidlna to serve videos and it works like a charm, even with big resolutions. While trying to find a way to deliver stream to the TV from under Mediatomb, it was required to specify some magical header value. Also DLNA players I worked with were extremely picky about the content type you specify. I.e. sending FullHD .ts stream won't work well unless you say it's video/mpeg.

Anyhow, at the moment opensource is only starting to be curious about something other then writing code and compiling it. Too bad they are doing new stuff kind of wrong (see KDE4 and Gnome3, my two major reasons to use Fluxbox).
