PS3 Media Server 1.50.0 Released

Fresh out of beta -- PS3 Media Server v1.50.00... It's the DLNA media server to be running if you're wanting to transcode and stream them high-def MKVs to your PS3. Best of all it's written in Java, supporting all the major platforms: Windows, Linux and OS X. You'll notice many improvements, especially since mplayer/mencoder has been replaced with newer builds, correcting colour-conversion bugs, which I experienced more than once.
