Video streamer for Sony PlayStation 4
All of this is possible thanks to HTML5 video support in the PlayStation 4 web browser. Keep in mind that it requires a powerful CPU that can encode H.264 videos in real time.
brew install ffmpeg --enable-libx264 --enable-libfaac --enable-libass --with-faac --with-ass
brew install icu4c
ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/icu4c/*/bin/icu-config /usr/local/bin/icu-config
ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/icu4c/*/include/unicode /usr/local/include
npm install

to start the applicationhttp://[ip of your computer]:8080/
using PlayStation 4 web browserWill be updated later but should be similar to Mac OS X.
I don't use Windows, patches are welcome.
Basic steps are:
Q: I have a 3D (SBS/OU) movie and my subtitles appear stretched, how to fix this?
A: Use http://code.google.com/p/sub3dtool/ to convert the subtitle to .ass format which supports 3D subtitles. Built in support for 3D subtitles will be added later.
Q: My computer can't keep up with encoding speed, is there anything i can do?
A: Get a faster computer or edit server.js and fiddle with ffmpeg parameters (try changing the preset). A configuration option might be added later.
Q: Can I buy you a beer?
A: Sure, send your donations to the dvsoftware@gmail.com PayPal address. Thanks!
