No transcoding?!
Just bought the Readynas Ultra 2 Plus for streaming media to my PS3 by a good WiFi network.
I chose the Ultra 2 Plus because it has a dualcore processor powerful enough for transcoding my movies so that my PS3 will work with all the diffrent formats that I have movies in. Now after some serious testing I realize that both "ReadyDLNA" and "Twonky" lack the simple feature to transcode movies on the fly.
Ive spent a full week to search the web after i really good NAS with this feature and now when I own one it does not work, not fun at all!
I see this as a key feature for a NAS made for home users. Most home users have their NASes for media storage and streaming, and the PS3 is now the most common mediabox in a normal household.
Please upgrade the software with otf transcoding so it can work for all the PS3 users...
