Xbox 360 - Streaming - Connecting To Pc

[andygill]

I've just set up my 360 and wired it to the router, given it its own ip address. its connected for sure, as i run a connection text and it oks the wired connection and the ip address, but then the 3rd one it oks seems to fail (PC). It mentions ports being enabled and i've gone into the settings and entered these in (ICP and UDP?). It still fails, but i've been on the xbox.com/pcsetup and installed Zune which is what it tells you to do on the website, but on the console it keeps mentioning Windows Media Connect. I've even installed WMP 11 and told it to share files but stillno joy. If anyone's been through the same problems, can you possibly help me out? Would be appreciated.

Thanks

andy

will be watching this thread with interest cos yesterday I got on to NTL & asked how I can connect my x-box 360 to my broadband & was tould the only way is for them to put a modem in my house cos at the moment my internet comes via my set top box they are due to fit the modem in 2 weeks time so knowing me thats when the fun will begin lol I have allso updated my tv service to HD so they will be messing about with that to for a extra £10 per month I will finally be able to get the benefit of owning a HD tv.

you have to have windows media center installed,Also i had to re do the initiall set up of the connection to media center.If you goggle this problem it has been a bit of a problem for the 360.

i don't like googling, but i have done and hey ho, this link takes you to where you need to go to get windows media center. i think its gone to that program Zune cos of my set up. go here anyway and get the appropriate one for your windows pc http://www.xbox.com/en-US/pcsetup/alldownloads.htm

mine working with xbox360

using a wirless network. Key thing you need media player 11 installed to be able to stream to your box. You also need to set the settings in media player to look for the right folders

hope this is some use

I DLed it then realised that it's an add on for media center to allow it to transcode unsupported formats. What I'm after is something I can install on server 2003 to do this. I already tried TVersity as recommended by Zaxxman but it's crashing too much for my liking. Anyone know of any other warez to try?
