Mediatomb network and folderlayout.

I have a couple of questions regarding mediatomb.

1st.
Does anyone have any experience streaming 1080p video to a ps3 over a 100mbit capable switch? Im wondering if i should buy 100mbit or gigabit.

2nd.
Is there a way to have folders show up directly under the first view.
When i add the folder at /media/storage/movies.
The entry in mediatomb looks like this Mediatomb-->PC Directory-->media-->storage-->movies-->*moviefiles*
I want it to look like Mediatomb-->Movies-->*moviefiles*

I know this problably isnt the right place to ask, but in my journey to get transcoding to work, the archlinux forums were the solution so ill ask here first

Thanks in advance

Re: Mediatomb network and folderlayout.

1) I can't do 1080i over 54Mbps wireless, so I'd go for gigabit if I were you. 100 might work though.
2) Yes you can, but you probably need to edit import.js or something. Everything is documented pretty well on http://mediatomb.cc/
