EEUG has released a new version of his impressive media player for the PS2. SMS is a DivX and MP3 player for the PS2. Using SMS, you can stream movies and music right to your TV. forget about all the set-top boxes, forget about the 'Media PC', if you have a PS2, you have all the hardware you need.

ChangeLog

DTV 480p video mode support added. Note: not tested here;
- added menu option to configure controller port 2. There're 3 options:
- gamepad: remote control is disabled and controller port 2 is configured
for gamepad;
- remote control: controller port 2 is configured for the official remote control
with external IR sensor plugged into controller slot 2;
- none: controller port 2 is disabled and support for the official remote control
with built-in IR sensor is enabled;
Notes: second option will appear only if there's no rom1:RMMAN2 module;
- added brightness control to the player. Use 'L2' gamepad button to decrease
brightness and 'R2' to increase it;
- added high precision mode to the MP3 decoder. Sound appears better in this mode but
it's more demanding in computational sense. This mode is always on for audio files
and it's selectable for video files via SMS menu;
- fixed cdvd driver (ISO9660:1999 mode). Thanks to 'Voldemar_U2' for the research and
implementation;
- added support for arabic subtitles. Activated by
"SMS menu->Player Settings->Subtitle Alignment->right" option. I'm not sure if I did
it correctly (original strings are reversed and displayed right aligned), so any
comments are welcome. Thanks to 'ALI' for explanations;
- updated USB drivers;
- network drivers are slightly optimized resulting a bit faster network transactions
(I've got ~690KB/s while transferring a video file to the hard disk);

if there was some sort of PSP function, Id consider it, but i think its a little late to get started with current-gen home console modding if you have'nt started yet, the scenes are all but dead.

But this Media Player is Amazing!!!... I have been streaming DivX Movies over my network to it and its as smooth as watching it on a DVD... no lag / jumps at all!!!!

Im thinking of setting up a small 500gb Cube PC under my desk Full of MP3's and Movies to stream to the PS2 in my front room on the big screen and to the PSP via Pimp Stream ;)

cant wait till SMS supports other media files :)

This looks and sounds very good I might test it after I mod my ps2 (I have been meaning to mod it for about 2 months now).
