So it looks like the svn version of mediatomb (which will become 0.12.0) now supports streaming PCM audio to the PlayStation(R) 3! This is super good news. So I went and updated my Python shim between Sipie and Mediatomb to output PCM.
You can get mediatomb-sirius.py from my CVS repository by visiting this url:
http://bagend.ub3rgeek.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/misc-scripts/mediatomb-sirius.py
Once I have the config sorted out, I will post more.
Edit:
I got FLAC streaming working, and shot a quick video of it in action.

Edit 2:
I got the sirius stuff working finally, had to overcome a few really annoying behaviours of all the bits involved, but it seems like it is working pretty well. You can head on over to the http://www.ub3rgeek.net/wp/sirius-on-the-playstation-3/ page for more details and another video.

I think something might be wrong with your cvsweb configuration! I can’t see anything except for base repository structure. Looking forward to tryingout mediatomb-sirius.py!
Looks like something in Perl 5.10.0 broke cvsweb, it should be better now.
sure is! well done. Now we can enjoy sirius streaming on our PS3 until SirriusXM takes away free (for subscribers) streaming on March 11th.
