Is my new bluray DNLA player useless?

[Tiggsy]

My set up was - TV, Xbox 360, PS3 (run through a Yam 7.1 amp)

Anyway - never used the PS3 for games, only bluray/dvd or streaming via DNLA off my NAS box.......but it would get too hot and the fan was very loud.

Alternative was to use the 360 which did DVD and DNLA but the fan was still quite loud.

So...bought a Panny Bluray with DNLA and stuck the PS3 in the kids room.....but the Panny can see my DNLA NAS box files but wont play them (oddly it plays some camcorder films i have on their but wont play things via bit torrent downloads?????

Is their a fix to that or is the PS3/360 really a lot better and this than a £200 Panny?

hmmmmm...that sucks. Right now I bit torrent, drag to my NAS using my PC then watch via DNLA in seconds.....I assume i know need to "convert"

What cheap easy /free software can do that?

seems it will pretty much only play mpg2 - £200 waste of money. Would have been better buying a £199 fan to blow at the PS3.
