Universal Media Server | Forum

UMS was working fine but I thought it was time for an update so I installed the new version and now the PS3 won't show up even though it was working fine before.

Any ideas?

No matter which port I select it always says it's being used. Sometimes though, after a few seconds it'll say

"The server is now available for renderers to find"

but I've never been able to get my PS3 to show up. I have my firewall off and no anti-virus stuff enabled to cause conflict.

Any help ...

Ok, I set my windows firewall to default, allowed UMS through, and the PS3 magically showed up (despite already being allowed before the default)

I'm just glad it works. Hopefully it won't go wonky again.

Thank you for your help in trying to resolve this. I do appreciate it.

I cycled through all the options but the PS3 still didn't show up.

It's wireless and it can connect to the internet through the PS3 browser.

I used to run PS3 Media Server but one day it stopped detecting my PS3 for whatever reason. I then "updated" to UMS to see if that would fix the problem but it did not.

UMS will detect my Xbox 360 but won't stream media to it while it won't detect me PS3 at all.

The only thing that's happened ...
