Help me choose a console please....

Today i found my first and probably only gripe with the PS3.....

Cinavia!!!!

Im not angry, just very disappointed that this DRM has no workaround.

Anyone else use this machine as a media server?
I do have a very powerful Phenom2 quad PC i used to use for this purpose but i wanted to sell it now that the PS3 streams my media so beautifully.

Oh well its an almost perfect media player and im very impressed with a PS3 slim stand i purchased at ToysRus with 4 port usb hub for R80.

Since cinavia is bonded to an audio track like vocals on an audio file, i was just wondering why this happens on DVD's rip as well, since Blu ray rips were only supposed to use cinavia?

Nothings perfect i guess.

Why not just use TVersity to Stream?

I do and i use PS3 media server, it still doesn't bypass Cinavia though.

@Wily me that program is excellent, however it cannot bypass a BD rip or TS/R5 encoded with Cinavia unless you have a BR disc and decrypt from there.

The best explanation i heard of how it cinavia works was when somebody compared it to removing the vocals from a song to make a karaoke version.

Such software exists but it still doesn't remove the vocals from a normal MP3.

So if this software is a hidden audio track that only effects Cinavia DRM enabled devices,

such a workaround is not possible unless you could remove the DRM from the Blu ray drives own firmware.

What a pity.
