Nullriver has released Medialink 1.5, their software for streaming media from your Mac to your PS3.

The main new feature is Aperture support. Would be nice if they published a more detailed changelog on their web site though.

Nullriver just released version MediaLink 1.3 this week.

If you're a Mac user who wants to stream media to your PS3, you don't really have too many options. I like MediaLink because it's inexpensive, and for the most part, works well.



It still doesn't support transcoding like TVersity for Windows does, but since I bought my copy, they've released a nice little stream of upgrades. I would really like to see Nullriver set up a public discussion forum for support, but I guess I'll have to wait on that one.

Mac users don't really have a lot of options in terms of serving DivX media to their PS3s... at least not like on Windows. Windows has the awesome and free TVersity application, which can send all sorts of movies to your PS3 using DLNA.

So far, it seems that there aren't many apps that do a good job of transcoding. Yeah, there are players out there like Twonky and EyeConnect, but I haven't really seen anything that follows the "it just works" mantra of Mac software.

A little shop in Burlington, Ontario named NullRiver has its own solution called MediaLink that is a fairly easy-to-use prefpane for a low price of 20 bucks. Granted, it's still a little flaky, but it's really easy to use and cheap.

If they can improve the stability of the app, and add broader codec support (MKV anyone?), I tend to think that NullRiver will have a killer app for those Mac users who also have a PS3.
