TL DR DLNA just serves basic files and shows naked folder structures, pretty boring and basic, but works without client app. Then install the PS3 app if you want (or just try it out over a webbrowser).
My suggestion, just install the free Plex Media Server, add some folders of your movies or shows, let it scan. Btw, Plex Server can also serve DLNA in addition to that. And you can browse your collection based on these criteria. The huge difference over DLNA is that Plex will show you the posters of the movies and shows, with additional info like the release year, who directed it, what actors are in it and more. After that it can stream the content to a client app that is installed on a Smart-TV (or Playstation, Xbox, etc.). Plex scans your media first and tries to match it against movie and tv-show databases, then it downloads the metadata for it. It just serves the folders you select on your computer to the device. Universal Media Server, PS3 Media Server, Serviio, KooRaRoo, Plex. UMS uses DLNA, meaning it can feed media content to pretty much every modern device that can receive DLNA (TV, Playstation, Xbox, etc.) and you dont need a seperate client app for that. The following is a list comparing UMS to other popular media servers.
