~ PS3 NET Server
ps3netsrv is a server application used to stream content from a remote server to the PS3.
The communication is always started from the PS3. The server mounts the ISO or folder, and an ISO image is streamed to the PS3.
You need to copy your content to the following optional folders in the shared directory or in the same folder of the ps3netsrv:
| Folder Name | Purpose | Contains |
| GAMES | Games in folder format (files extracted from BDVD) | Folders |
| PS3ISO | ISO images of PS3 blurays | ISO + Covers |
| PSXISO | ISO images (CUE/BIN) of PS1 CDs. | ISO + Covers |
| PS2ISO** | ISO images of PS2 DVDs or CDs. | ISO + Covers |
| PSPISO** | ISO images of PSP UMDs. | ISO + Covers |
| BDISO | ISO images of video blurays (decrypted). | ISO + Covers |
| DVDISO | ISO images of DVDs. | ISO + Covers |
| ROMS** | ROMS folder. | ROMs + Covers |
| GAMEI** | Folder to store PSN games extracted from packages. | Folders |
| PKG | Folder to store PS3 packages. Used to install games, DLC, homebrews, etc. | pkg files |
| MOVIES | Folder to store movies (MKV, DIVX, AVI, etc.). | Video Files |
| MUSIC | Folder to store music (MP3, WMA, WAV, etc.). | Audio Files |
| PICTURE | Folder to store photos (JPG, PNG, GIF, etc.) | Image Files |
The folders are converted to ISO on demand by ps3netsrv when they are mounted.
The folders require to have that specific name (in uppercase). Other folders be streamed too.
There are 4 backup managers that support ps3netsrv protocol: multiMAN, webMAN, webMAN MOD and sMAN.
You can find them on https://store.brewology.com/whatsnew.php
IRISMAN supports remote content if webMAN MOD is running.
Each backup manager requires that you setup the IP address of the remote server and the port (38008 is the default).
When the content is scanned by the backup manager, the PS3 connects to the remote server, reads the folder and the game appear in its game list.
When a game is mounted, a netiso.sprx plugin is loaded and it starts the communication with the ps3netsrv.
The ISO or the folder (converted to vISO) is streamed and mounted on the PS3 as /dev_bdvd
Example: If you mount the folder /net0/PKG, the remote packages (*.pkg) can be installed normally from the mounted /dev_bdvd using the Package Manager on XMB, although the installation speed is a bit slow.
