It's usually "Elma" from what I've heard. :-)
For many years, I thought it was "Yosemite" Sam, pronounced like "Yosa
Might". :-)

I always thought it was pronounced like that - until I heard someone
actually say it...

OOC what software do you use on the media server to stream to the PS3? I
could never get it to work reliably with high-bitrate videos.

Apparently they added it in Vista. (Which is why I've never heard of it
either.)

What I do know is that the DVD software I've got produces fairly poor
quality. Like, I render some stuff with POV-Ray, burn it onto DVD and
play it back, and there are fairly obvious MJPEG artifacts. I don't know
whether the encoder is just poorly implemented, or whether the quality
settings are just set too low. (The quality options are "auto" and
"manual"... really helpful!)
I guess the next question is whether any software supports BluRay
authoring yet, once I manage to save up the £££ to buy a BlyRay burner.
I've already got the player to play it on. ;-)
(And hell, by the time I've finished saving up, it probably won't even
be expensive any more!)

I believe my dad *has* Adobe Premiere Elements... Maybe I should go
investigate?

Yeah, that was my experience a while back with everything but uLead Movie
Factory, or whatever they call it. I went thru a bunch of trial versions
before I found one that wouldn't just turn completely flat and blocky with a
picture of a rippling pond.

windows front end for MEncoder. I found that it worked quite well.
It can be found at
http://blackblueice.bl.funpic.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3
English is supported but German is the native language.

I use the PS3 Media Server (PMS) - available from
http://ps3mediaserver.blogspot.com/
I tried the beta and had problems, the 1.10.5 release works quite well
for me. I stream over wireless from a 64-bit openSUSE 11.2 system.
