Default Help connecting PS3 to PC please :)

Hey guys, how do you connect your PS3 to PC to stream things?
I have gone into my network and it isn't detecting the PS3. I go on the PS3 and search for media devices and it doesn't detect my PC. Is there something i'm missing?
Connected to the internet through my router, both PC and PS3 hooked up to ports on the router through ethernet cables.
The PS3 can agme online and surf the net fine. So it isn't a connection problem. More of a communication problem.
Any fixes or advice?

Default Aha!

You need to be running a media server on your PC. Either enable sharing in Media Player 11, or install another server such as TVersity.

Cheers,
Ripface.
