I am pretty sure the PS3 will play Mpeg2 streams. I don't want to mess with Microsofts Media Center. I currently am using a stand alone Networked Media Center Drive to stream to my PS3. It works great, I use the drive to stream Backup copies of my DVD's and other videos to the PS3. So the plan is to only use the PC to record the shows, then use the Media Center Drive to stream.
