Got it...

Ok... got my TV on tuesday. Installation was quite quick and hooking up my freshly aquired PS3 worked without problems. I then tried to put the PS3 into the network and had to search the Inet to find how to do it... finally, I rebootet my router and the problems I had went away. Spent more than 2h on that.

I bought "Ratatouille" as BRDisc and "Fifa08" and "Uncharted" as games. Haven't played "Uncharted" yet because "Fifa08" kept me busy :)

Overall I'm really happy with my TV setup. I tried hooking up a network drive via USB to my PS3 and that worked too (after I found out how to set up the folders). Unfortunately, the network HDs I have cannot be accessed by network and USB in the same time. And it doesn't switch unless you turn of the HD and turn it back on.

So I took a look into how to set up a media station and decided to give a try to the NSLU2 from Linksys. Normally, you should be able to flash it with a Linux distribution and install further software on that device. But my first attempt on that didn't work out: a) it didn't let me select a mirror server within the debian installer (it always jumped from the ftp server select screen into the proxy server screen and *without* me doing anything instantly jumped back into the ftp server select screen. I talked to a friend who already set up 2 of those devices in that way and even he told me that this is strange.

So, I just flashed it back to the old firmware and I'll give it a second try later this day...

Have fun,
Stefan
