Title: Config Problem: Show Only Drives E/f For Mp3s
Post by: 1st_Moon on June 09, 2004, 12:32:00 AM

OK, I'm talking about Xbox only, there's no PC connected to it. I've put mp3s into these dirs:

e:\multimedia\mp3
f:\multimedia\mp3

and when I start up XboxMediaCenter and select 'music' I have these drives:

C Drive
DVD-ROM
E Drive
F Drive
SMB
XBMS
XNS.

How do I reduce this list to

DVD-ROM
E Drive
F Drive

whereas a selection of E or F should directly bring up \multimedia\mp3 and not the root drive so I can skip having to dive down into dirs. Is this possilble?

I fiddled around with XboxMediaCenter.xml commenting out those other drives but to no avail so I figured these apply to shares only, i.e. when other machines are connected to the Xbox. Is that correct?

How can I turn off unwanted drives, I did not find any other 'general' config file?!  <

You could remove the bookmarks to those in the music section of your XboxMediaCenter.xml. See below.

CODE

-     -     C Drive C:\ -     E Drive E:\ -     F drive F:\ -     G drive G:\ -     DVD-ROM drive D:\ -     -     -     XNS xns://192.168.0.1:1400/ -     MS Soundtracks soundtrack:// -     XBMS xbms://192.168.0.1:1400/ -     SMB smb://DOMAIN;username:pwd@MyWindowsServer/movies/ -     WORKGROUPS (SMB) smb://

Infact, you might actually want to edit each "my *** shares" section to remove the parts you don't want. Or better, comment each of those bookmarks out using , just incase you want them back at some stage.
