Yeah, don't use Xenium's File transfer abilities for a lot of files/large files. Use Xbox Media Center's SMB support or FTP to transfer the files.

Updating to the latest OS 2.2.1 fixed this problem for me.

Bingo. Rename them to something shorter.

Ive found that there are certain file length limits on the Xbox HDD, and thats why my music wouldnt copy, so i set my music player to rename all the files to "tracknumber.mp3". And 99% of them transfered. About 8 albums didnt, and i cant work out why. Ideas?

look for a program named 'prexboxcopytool' or something like that.  you just point it at a directory and it will rename all your files to legal lengths and characters, works great, I used it on rom collections.

Found a program, when searching for "prexboxcopytool", called "MP3 FatX Renamed". Which did the job nicely.

XBMC seems to have the album art on the wrong albums, is there a way to delete the Db file for the music, and then have it re-scan? To correct the problem.
