This is most likely a permissions issue.  The 360 uses the MCX user account,

I have yet to find a solution to this.

I have all my movies and music on my WHS.  When i try to access them
from XBox360 through media center, it cannot see them.  The music is
in the default music folder, which has Guest read access.  The movies
are in a folder called Movies which also has guest read access.

When i browse to music on media center it cannot see the sared
folders.
When i try to play a movie through My Movies 2, it disaplys the path
of the movie, ok but if i try to play it, media complains with "path
not found".

Has anyone suceeded here?- Hide quoted text -
