Csobsidian: ps3mediaserver

I used the following procedure to get ps3mediaserver working under Fedora 12. I have tested this with avi and mkv files.
<HR>
1. Open a terminal.

2. Type the following command to grab the ps3mediaserver application:
"wget http://ps3mediaserver.googlecode.com/files/pms-generic-linux-unix-1.20.412.tgz"
Note: the most recent version can be found using the reference links at the bottom.

2. Unpack the application:
"tar -zxvf pms-generic-linux-unix-1.20.412.tgz"

3. Navigate into the applications directory:
"cd pms-linux-1.20.412"

4. Modify the permissions for the executable script:
"chmod 770 PMS.sh"

5. Get superuser permissions:
"su"
enter root password

7. Install dependencies/supporting binaries:
"yum -y install ffmpeg mplayer mencoder"

8. Return to normal user permissions:
"exit"

9. Run the server:
"./PMS.sh"
<HR>
I utilized the following resources though I have not tried the init script yet. Looks pretty straight forward.
