Re: Connecting Media Player 11 to Xbox 360

Thanks for the tips....

I've tried method 1 about 100 times and no luck.

I'll give method 2 a try right now and see how it works out.

I had this problem. There are lots of forum discussions of this issue on
Xbox.com, so you may find additional help there.

There seem to be 2 ways to resolve it...

1. On the 360 disconnect from your computer (using System \ Computers I
think) and then go to the music screen again. This will allow you to set
up your connection to the PC again and seems to solve this for a number of
people.

2. In my case, I was using Windows Media Connect (WMC) and had MP 11 Beta
1 installed prior to installing MP 11 Beta 2. To get the 360 to see the
music on the PC I uninstalled MP 11 Beta 2, rebooted, then uninstalled
WMC, then rebooted and then re-installed MP 11 Beta 2 and rebooted for a
3rd time. This might be overkill but something that I did resolved the
problem for me. I suspect that something related to WMC was hanging around
and causing a conflict, though I had had an error message that seemed to
indicate that MP 11 hadn't completed it's installation correctly.

NB The problem didn't just affect my 360 I found that I also couldn't see
any files from my NetGear MP101.

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen

Hey Everyone,

I've added my Music files (D:\music) to my list of Monitored Folders and
turned on sharing and allowed the Xbox 360. I've also modified the
settings to share all media (no just 2 stars or higher)

When I connect with my xbox 360, no matter what I do, it always says "No
Albums Found"

Anyone else had this same problem or know how to fix it?

thanks
