Sure,

Standard FC 7 (I will soon upgrade it to FC 8)
modified version of iwconfig to allow wpa-psk(2) to work
Xine-lib cvs (v1.1.6)
vdr-sxfe or vdr-fbfe as needed
The PS3 is connected to a SD TV set. 

As you can see it is not something complicated. Apparently when trying the 
same thing with HD (720p/1080p) television gives better result. (talking 
about picture quality) To enhance the picture quality on a SD TV you can 
deinterlace in sw before displaying the picture. The drawback is that an 
interlaced source is de-interlaced then interlaced again to coop with PAL 
standard. 

I did put this project on hold until better fb or xv support is popping up ;-) 
May be you will also be interested to have a look here:
