Changelog 1.30.1:
- Fixed bug that caused very slow iTunes library parsing
Changelog 1.30.0:
- Backwards-incompatible API changes (for plugin developers/packagers) - see ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=11283 for more details
- Updated OS X binaries (FFmpeg, MEncoder and MPlayer) to fix an AC3 bug and improve internal VOBsub display quality
- Optional GUI to allow profile to be selected when PMS starts
- Better UPnP spec compliance
- Logging improvements
- ASS/SSA subtitles disabled by default on Linux and OS X
- Multithreaded MEncoder enabled by default on multithreaded CPUs
- Subtitles stay within confines of original frame when using overscan compensation
- Made transcoding tab resizing consistent for all sizes
- Fixed DTS audio support with FFmpeg
- MEncoder supports DTS-ES (6.1 channels) audio
- Handles unknown audio channels
- Change maximum number of plugins to 30 from 4
- Improved MP4 support
- New Korean translation (thanks, mrahn80)
- Fixed bug where config sometimes wouldn't save on Windows 7
Upgrade Notes:
For 1.23.0 and above:
- Just uninstall the older version and install newer one
For versions prior to 1.23.0:
- To retain your old settings you may have to copy your old config file/s to a new directory.
- To find out where the new directory is on your computer, run the program and go to the Traces tab and look on the 14th line, the line that says "Profile directory:", that is the folder your config files should be saved now.
- If you use the "media library / cache" option you should reset it.
Looks much better integrated (and supports more video formats) than the Windows Media Server.
Any other similar apps to compare this with?
Nice.

To quote from SubJunk on the PlayStation 3 Media Server v1.50.1 Build 61 changes:
