Re: Windows Vista Ultimate and XBOX 360

Hi Todd,

Yes it is a full 100MB connection, the NIC in the PC is a Integrated one for a MSI Motherboard. As I said the video streaming works fine with WMP11 but not WMC.

The Network is by default Wired cable to a Belkin Router, then Wired to the XBOX. I have taken the router out and issue remains.

Thanks

You mentioned being warned that you have slow network performance. Was this when you were running a full 100 Mbps network? If so, please provide additional information regarding the network card in your PC and the network switch that you are using.

Hi Thanks for the reply,

The Media Center logs at present only show Windows Media Center Extender account Mcx1 has been created for device 'uuid:10000000-0000-0000-0200-00125A7E8344'. as the last log. However in the past it has shown other logs like:

Cannot send Extender software to device
'uuid:10000000-0000-0000-0200-00125A7E8344' . Error code: 0x800704d4.


Any ideas?

AllanF it is the full version

Please check the event viewer for any Media Center events corresponding to the time that you tried to add the Xbox 360 as an Extender. (right click My Computer --> Manage. Select Event Viewer --> Select Applications and Service Logs --> Media Center)

Hi All,

just finished udating to vista ultimate and have an issue with the XBOX 360,
the XBOX is connected via RJ45 to a 100MB network to the desktop.

When I try to setup MCE it gets to step Setting Media Locations (6325) and
ticks that it then moves to Connecting to Extender but fails to go any
further, on the XBOX it has "Contacting". I have tried it both with and
without a firewall issue remains, plugged in directly to the desktop and xbox and via a router.

If I run the network test it tells me it has slow performance.

I have also tried WMP11 media sharing and it works fine for video and music.

Any assistance very much appreciated.

Thanks
