And this app is just do get i.e. Music files from the source to your PS3, I think.

No, this is to use your computer as a media server to your PS3 (listen to mp3, watch movies,.. streamed from your PC to your PS3) I don't use it in a while but i remember it supports most used video formats and subtitles. And you don't need anything to make it work.. only a PC, a PS3 and a local network..

Thats exactly what it is

Since Shagrath looked like he had no time for it anymore and he hadn't updated it for a very long time there has been a forked 'community patched' version. This has also been updated to include the new update.

Yea hehe, whenever a screenshot isn't included with submissions I just Google for one and stick it in... in this case I searched for PS3 Media Server and that was one that popped up.
