How to Stream a Mac to a PS3 & Vuze
Vuze is a bittorrent client designed to help you download many types of files from the internet. If you have downloaded video files using Vuze, you can stream the video files to your PlayStation 3 -- if they are in a compatible file format. If the files are not in a compatible format, the Vuze software will convert it for you and then make it available for streaming on the PlayStation 3, eliminating the headaches involved in converting your videos.
