The <name> tag just gives it a name so you can identify that particular entry in XBMP; it can be anything you want.
The <url> tag tells XMBP where to find that particular share; for RELAX streaming you need to put in the following format: path@IP address, as in the example above. The "1400" somebody else listed is the port; 1400 is the default and you don't need to enter a port unless you're using something other than 1400, in which case your <url> entry would look something like this:
<url>c:\[email protected]:1492</url>
If you using a streamer other than RELAX, like samba (smb) you need to specify it in the <url> tag as well, along with the username, password, workgroup, and computer name:
<url>smb://xbox:xbox@funderland/maisy/my pictures</url>

That clears things up for me a little bit.
I am fairly new to computers.
I will post my results later today. I hope it works for me.

I have seen some example's that show <url>[email protected] etc
Is that required?

Either that or it's just an example, and you have to replace $ROOT with the root directory of all your shared files, and $mp3 with the specific sub-directory you keep your mp3's in.
BTW, in my example there's supposed to be a backslash after c: but the forum stripped them out. I just put them back in. Hope they stay this time.

$ROOT$ is not a requirement. Neither is the port number at the end.
I would recommend using an absolute path instead of $ROOT$
i.e.
c:\shared\music
d:\stream\videos
Or whatever is your shared path.
