I'm using Mediatomb as mediaserver to play music and videos on my PS3. However, i'm not able to play mp3 files, i get the message "incompatible data" on the tv. I'm able to play most videos, but not all. The software i use are Ubuntu 7.10 and Mediatomb 0.10.0. I have also made sure that both w32codecs og libdvdcss2 codecs are installed, as are the "restricted extras" (as someone tiped me to check). What can the problem be?

I believe you'll find this helpful: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=648582 Cheers!

Thanx for the tip, i tried but it still doesn't work. I've also made sure i have the w32codecs. Could there be any other codecs or something that i don't know about? The wma is also activated (on my ps3), as a guy suggested.

I don't believe it's a codecs issue. From all I've read, once you get your mappings right, that is, once you've mapped MP3 to audio/mpeg, you should be able to play MP3s. I'll keep looking and see if I can find something else.

I've downloaded som ogg files and tried to play some of these also, but i got the same message "incompatibel data"

you could install linux on your ps3 if you want to play anything on it
