Watching episode 1 of The Frozen Planet on 720p. 1080i doesn't want to stream over my network without stuttering.

I told you to never try 1080 anything. To much information for wireless to handle. Especially if it's dts or dd surround.

[Scrumhalf]

Yep, except mine doesn't want to play without stuttering even wired. I am running off a really old computer, so it might be processor limited. Or it might be my pos router lol.... May need to get a better one there as well. My router is about 5 years old.The file I have is an mkv, so don't know what decoding is required on the fly to play this on the ps3. Good news is that I am in the process of building a core i5 desktop, so I should have a screaming machine in a couple of months.

Your PS3 plays .mkv? Mine doesn't, I always have to convert them.

[Scrumhalf]

I don't think it plays it natively. I think PS3 media server decodes it. When I pull up the directory with the file in it on the TV screen, it gives me an option to pick an alternative stream which I assume is PS3 media server transcoding on the fly.

I have a core i5 6 gigs of ram and a new router. 1080p stutters constantly.

Ps3 media server on your computer then stream to ps3

While hard wired is preferred a good wireless connection should work just fine especially in a small condo. I stream the 1080p on vudu via wireless flawlessly. No pixelation, no freezing, no audio loss.

Nah, that's not what I am talking about, I can do 1080p vudu just fine.

I am talking about pure uncompressed torrent 1080p files. Vudu, Netflix etc is compressed and optimized. Try downloading a 1080p file onto your computer them streaming it.

I gotcha
