The following packages are required to run the media server:
* Twisted (only core and web necessary, tested w/ 2.1.0 and
Web 0.5.0)
* ElementTree
* SOAPpy available from Python Web Services
* fpconst (required by SOAPpy)
Web 0.5.0) - http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/
* ElementTree - http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm
* SOAPpy - http://pywebsvcs.sourceforge.net/
* fpconst (required by SOAPpy) -

Optional software packages:
* rarfile - http://grue.l-t.ee/~marko/src/rarfile/

NOTE: SOAPpy is no longer required as I have included soap_lite from the
Coherence project: https://coherence.beebits.net/ .

Thanks to Coherence for soap_lite that solved the issues w/ PS3 not seeing
the media server. The PS3 with the latest firmware (2.50 and later) now
plays a lot more media than before. It will stream ATSC streams (OTA HD)
w/ AC3 (5.1) audio, but the stream has to have PAT followed by PMT to see
the stream as valid. If it is PAT, PAT, PMT or PMT, PAT, the PS3 will
think the stream is corrupted. Also, if the stream starts out w/ 2 channel
AC3 audio, and later switches to 5.1, you will be stuck w/ 2 channel audio.
Support for WMV and Xvid in AVI seems to work well.

v0.x:
Ignore AppleDouble Resource Fork Files. (Maybe we should ignore all
dot files.)
Readded SOAPpy requirement as it is necessary for twisted.
Readded SOAPpy/fpconst requirement as it is necessary for twisted.
Made it a bit closer to a real twisted proejct, in the process,
pymediaserv looks more like a normal program. It allows you to
override the media path and title of the server.
