To quote:
General:
Built from SVN r949. Released as beta because some code changes haven't been widely tested yet.
Changelog:
- Backwards-incompatible API changes (for plugin developers/packagers) - see HERE for more details
- Updated binaries build script to include Linux support (thanks, happy.neko!)
- Updated OS X MPlayer to include fontconfig support
- Updated Bulgarian translation (thanks, JORDITO!)
- Updated German translation (thanks, smo!)
- Updated Dutch translation
- Added full featured IP filter with support for wildcards and ranges
- Improved network interface choosing algorithm now skips virtual interfaces
- Updated libraries (configuration, jgoodies and slf4j)
- Detect file system changes runtime (adding/removing folders/files).
- Updated JRE auto-download from 6u27 to 7u1
- Added option to create a desktop shortcut to the Windows installer
- Renderer image improvements
- Improvements to tab layouts
- Maximum bandwidth setting works
- Limit bandwidth to 110Mb/s by default which should solve a lot of "stuttering playback" reports
- Speeds displayed in Mb/s instead of Kb/s
- Recognise forced subtitles (thanks, ExSport!)
- Clarified English language labels
- Updated MPlayer and MEncoder on Windows from Sherpya's old builds to SubJunk's new builds which fixes many playback issues, colour-conversion bugs and more (but possibly has drawbacks for some files, too)
- Main (Status) tab displays a large tick when it's connected to a renderer instead of a PS3 or warning image
- Updated MediaInfo to 0.7.50 from 0.7.47
PS4 killed jailbreak. People are not going to upload a 100GB game nor download a 100GB game 
even so, a 2TB HDD can hold max 10-20games...
Nice.

To quote from SubJunk on the PlayStation 3 Media Server v1.50.1 Build 61 changes:
This build functions as the bleeding-edge testing version of PMS. Here you can find features and bugfixes before they are added to the official version, and sometimes ones that never will be. Using this build is mostly a way for you to see the newest developments and to help us by providing feedback.

I'm not interested in bypassing cinevia, but thought others might be.
