[quote name='greyzieoriental']Before you upgrade to Windows 8, know that streaming to your TV or PS3 is extremely glitchy. Making videos almost unbearable. I would like to blame it on my old computer, but Windows 7 did streaming flawlessly to both my TV and my PS3. This includes MP4's and MKV's. If this is not a deal breaker or if you've found a solution to this BS let me know please. Also the folder structure for sharing to both are a POS. It displays every folder shared and I mean every folder, even folders without video in them.
I'm very disappointed in this, other than that I wouldn't have minded the upgrade. But now I wish I could go back until they at least fix it.
Main problem is stutter, constant loading, and dropping signal to my router. None of this happened in Windows 7. I also would blame my router but I have "the dark knight" so I know it's not the router either. This is on 2.4 and 5 N[/QUOTE]
To be fair streaming to my PS3 has never worked for me. In fact, the PS3 itself has issues with the wireless network and is a considerably slower performer than my 360, which is why I don't use my PS3 as a media center at all (the 360 seems to have a much better support for the feature either way). I haven't tried with Windows 8, but with Windows 7 and Vista, I only ever got my 360 to work fine.
