How to Broadcast Your PS3

The Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) is a video game console with a built-in wireless network adapter and multimedia functionality. The console can be used to stream music and video files from a personal computer acting as a wireless media server. However, the PS3 must be visible on the network before any content can be streamed to the console. By enabling the media server connection and actively searching for streaming content, the PS3 console can be broadcast over a wireless network.
