hi guys,
I have set up my ps3 and have managed to share music on my pc with the ps3, stream/copy to it etc. If i get some of the high def disc copies which are about will i be able to stream them from the pc to the ps3 in high def?

yeah, use something like Nero to stream them, works fine

BUT (and this is a big thing to most, inc me)
The PS3 downmixes everything to stereo except DVD movies and BDMV Blu-ray movies

so you will be able to stream the videos OK (if you have trouble use nero vison to convert to "nero digital" aka mp4 or use PS3 video 9 which will also convert x264 mkv files) but they will play in stereo.

I convert mine to BDMV's and burn to Blu-ray to keep the audio 5.1
