I'm very excited to have installed PS3MS on Ubuntu Server following these guides

 http://irrationale.com/2010/06/30/ps3-media-server-on-ubuntu-10-04/

But when I play WMV files, I receive this error "The data type is not supported. (800288C0)"

Is there a way I could fix this?

  • Have you tried to go into the "#Transcoded#" Folder?

  • Yes, for each video there are three entries in #Transcoded# folder, none of which work

I had problems until I used this guide: http://www.ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13046

Ubuntu users can install PS3 Media Server (and keep it up to date) automatically with these simple commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:happy-neko/ps3mediaserver
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ps3mediaserver
