DLNA Error 7531

RedSwirl · 02-16-2008, 01:02 PM

I'm trying to get a DLNA network set up between my desktop (Vista 32 bit) and my Playstation 3 with Windows Media Player 11's sharing functionality.

My PS3 recognizes the media server but whenever I try to access it I get an error called "7531" and the PS3 cannot detect anything that's on the server.

I've looked on other boards and found out that a lot of people have the same problem but no solution seems to have been found. Some people are saying that it's even a problem with the PS3 itself and should be fixed in the next firmware update.

Has anyone else gotten this error and solved it?

Welcome to the frustration of the latest of DRM headaches!

I haven't even tried to tinker with DRM for the most part, too buggy and frustating!

None of the stuff I'm trying to share is DRM'ed.

Why do you need DLNA in that case? I don't have a PS3, and I know nothing about them, so maybe I'm in left field here.

For streaming content between my PC and my PS3's harddrive. The PS3 has media center functionality. So does the 360.

I don't have an XBOX either. I confess to not knowing a lot about the gaming consoles.
