Anyone who uses the PS3 as a media centre, if so, what software do you use?

Me ? I don't use the ps3 as a media center with my computer.

Apparently I've to send it back and to add 150 euros for a brand new ps3.

I do use PS3 Media Server and it's fantastic but I can't make the Blu-Ray stream properly. I can't make the voice channel work. I tried with 2 movies but they both missed the voices. I tried various formats like M2TS/MT2/MKV but they all had the same. All other channels are audible.

Ideas to solve this?

If any of you own LittleBigPlanet, which is an awesome game, I'm trying to get the Create Trophy. Please heart me and my levels.

Also I just beat Killzone 2 for the first time. Great game. Too many f-bombs though for my liking.
