A Linux, Mac, x64 Streaming Solution for the 360

Sorry, im a bit n00b at this stuff
i downloaded the files, but i have no idea what to do
thx.


There's a "readme" file. Assuming you're on windows, you have to have a JRE 1.5 installed (java) and there are a few dependencies (lame.exe, etc) that you put in a dir. Then simply run the start.bat file.

Anyhow, on another note, while I can get this to run on FreeBSD, and the 360 will see it, it will never show any music. I've tried with large and small directories of MP3's. I can't seem to see if there's a way to pass the media dir directly upon startup instead of using the http interface (conf.html). When I submit it, I'm really not sure if it "took" since it returns a blank page.

Can anyone confirm on their working system that when they go into the config it returns with some HTML, or is it simply blank? The other issue is that the conf.html is hardcoded to 127.0.0.1, I simply changed this to be the public IP of the server it's running on, instead of having to tunnel ssh 7000.

Just got my XBox 360 and after some major googling I finally came across 360MediaServer and it did the trick with very minimal fuss.  Thanks for the awesome tool tawsi!

Hi,

I am one of the authors of the MediaTomb UPnP server
http://www.mediatomb.org/

I know that the Xbox requires some custom extensions on the UPnP server side, I would like to add Xbox compatibility to MediaTomb but I will need your help for testing and feedback because I do not own an Xbox so I can not test it myself.

If anyone is interested in this and is willing to help me out please contact me via
e-mail: jin <at> mediatomb <dot> org

Greetings,
Jin

Ok as if by magic again the 360 now see's this on my Suse 10.1 install and all works fine. - NOW how can we get a video and photo stream added to this so we can REALLY use the 360 properly?

cheers

I can confirm I am streaming music perfectly from debian etch, using 360mediserver(http://x360mediaserve.sourceforge.net/). I am not sure if 360mediaserver handles pictures and movies aswell, looking into this now.
