The old support thread has been made invisible. It was explained to me that it was perceived as a commercial advertising thread since I accept donations. Because of that, I will no longer mention donations anywhere on this thread *except for this first post*. I continue to accept donations, much like many many other homebrew developers/projects. The amount of time and effort homebrew takes is huge, and the donations add a small sense of accomplishment. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. If the mods have a problem with this, you can edit this post to remove this paragraph, or remove the thread entirely. I'm still hoping to get the old thread back, since it has a lot of historical information. If the mere mention of accepting donations causes this thread to be removed, I'll have to pack my bags and do support and announcements elsewhere...which makes me sad.
With that, please enjoy the newest features.

Great app! Have never been able to get xm360server.exe to work but I think it's because I use an internal hdd on my 360. I usually just update with perl. Anyways...a cool feature to add would be the ability to find and delete duplicate dlc and also to locate avatar items. I have sooooo many duplicate avatar items and way too many duplicate rb/gh songs that always show up as corrupted because there are duplicates.
Shouldn't have anything to do with an internal hdd, don't know why you'd think that even matters. I only have internal hard drives on all of my 360s...and it works fine.
Find and delete of duplicates could be done...
Avatar items has been asked many times before. I'd have to learn about them. I haven't gotten to that point yet.

A little more info on the activity just pre-crash:
The crash occurs a few seconds after the "button" with the IP of the other system is clicked. All of the XBLA on the screen at the time are marked with the "L" for local, and the USB drive scanning seems to begin. Then the screen glitches (text blurs and moves a little to the side/half of screen goes blank/random garbage) and the system shuts down/reboots.
If there is any other info I can give, or any testing I can help with, just let me know.

I tried disabling the ping patch and the unlicensed content patch to see if maybe they were the issue. Still freezing, so I'm thinking it's not them. It may be Dashlaunch itself, but I don't really feel like building and flashing another freeboot image to test it. Node21 said he'd check it out over the weekend on his new DevKit, which is awesome of him to do, though I'd much rather have a new version of FreestyleDash to play with than a fixed XM360 (hint, hint). ;^)

So, my 360 has a ton of content on the USB drive. I'd like to setup the server and keep the two in sync. Awesome feature.
My XBOX config looks like:
CODE
# config file for xm360 ("xm360.cfg")
# XM360 looks for this file first in Hdd1:\config\xm360 (Hdd1:\config\xm360\xm360.cfg)
# if it can't find it there, it falls back to game:\xm360.cfg
## DLC_IGNORE_PATH is the path where the file "dlc_excludes.csv" will be read/written
## DLC_REPORT_PATH is the path where the file "dlc_report.txt" will be written
## DLC_TITLES_PATH is the path where the file "dlc_titles.csv" will be read (used to override the built in version)
## XBLA_IGNORE_PATH is the path where the file "xbla_excludes.csv" will be read/written
## XBLA_REPORT_PATH is the path where the file "xbla_report.txt" will be written
## XBLA_TITLES_PATH is the path where the file "xbla_titles.csv" will be read (used to override the built in version)
## The available prefixes are Hdd1:, usb: (first found mounted usb device), usb0:, usb1:, usb2:, usbmu0:, usbmu1:)
## in all cases, the default value is usb:\
## only the TITLES_PATH values will fall back to the built in version if nothing is found
## New in version 1.5 is REPORT_PATH which supercedes XBLA_REPORT_PATH and DLC_REPORT_PATH
## It allows a single definition for all report paths, including Game Saves.
## XBLA and DLC_REPORT_PATH are still understood, and will override REPORT_PATH which defaults to usb:
REPORT_PATH = usb:
DLC_IGNORE_PATH = usb:
#DLC_IGNORE_PATH = hdd1:\config\xm360
#DLC_REPORT_PATH = usb:
XBLA_IGNORE_PATH = usb:
#XBLA_IGNORE_PATH = hdd1:\config\xm360
#XBLA_REPORT_PATH = usb:
## User and Password for the ftpd. If config isn't found, xbox/xbox will be used/
FTP_USER = xbox
FTP_PASS = xbox
## TIME_SERVER_IP is the IP to connect to to find out the current time.
## TIME_SERVER_IP default if this entry isn't found is 131.107.13.100
## Make it empty to skip setting the time
TIME_SERVER_IP = 131.107.13.100
#TIME_SERVER_IP =
## EXTRA_XBLA_SEARCH_PATH will be search for XBLA in addition to the built in places
## trailing slash will be trimmed if it is there
## the default value is empty
#EXTRA_XBLA_SEARCH_PATH =
## Configuration of other 360s to find looks like this.
## The label is optional (but displayed in the UI if provided)
## The login and password is optional (both default to 'xbox')
## The port is optional (and will default to 21)
## Whatever is after the last underscore ('_') has to be unique for each connection
## It is fine to configure ALL of your boxes (including the local one) since XM360 will filter out the local one.
## That makes it easy to share your xm360.cfg on all of your boxes.
OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LABEL_1 = Server
OTHER_XBOX_FTP_IP_1 = 192.168.1.101
OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LOGIN_1 = xbox
OTHER_XBOX_FTP_PASS_1 = xbox
OTHER_XBOX_FTP_PORT_1 = 21
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LABEL_2 = Family Room
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_IP_2 = 192.168.0.104
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LOGIN_2 = xbox
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_PASS_2 = xbox
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LABEL_3 = Office
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_IP_3 = 192.168.0.106
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_LOGIN_3 = xbox
#OTHER_XBOX_FTP_PASS_3 = xbox
## Horizontal and Verticle overscan can be specified. If they aren't found, they default to 0
#H_OVERSCAN = 10
#V_OVERSCAN = 0
## CONTENT_BIN_PATH specifies where the content.bin file is stored. It defaults to "game:"
#CONTENT_BIN_PATH = hdd1:\config\xm360
And my server config looks like:
CODE
# The following drives can be defined Hdd1, Usb0, Usb1, Usb2, MemUnit0, MemUnit1, OnBoardMU, UsbMU0, UsbMU0Cache, UsbMU1, UsbMU1Cache
# At least one drive must be defined otherwise nothing is going to work. I suggest defining Hdd1 at least.
# Absolute paths like c:\foo and UNC paths like \\server\share\path are both supported.
# You shouldn't nest them, or you will end up with duplicates. In other words, don't define Usb0 to be a branch of Hdd1
#DEFINE_HDD1 = \\share\public\console images\xbox360\jtag
DEFINE_HDD1 = D:\Content Server
#DEFINE_USB0 = e:\temp\USB
#CONTENT_BIN_PATH must be defined as an xbox 360 path, it defaults to Hdd1:\
CONTENT_BIN_PATH = Usb0:\Content\
#
# The FTP user, password and port can be defined, but they will default to xbox, xbox, 21 otherwise
#
#FTP_USER = xbox
#FTP_PASSWORD = xbox
#FTP_PORT = 212
I can connect from the XBOX just fine. I then go to do the initial "Push" from the xbox. Each item in the content window shows "Queued". One by one it looks like it is uploading to the server. After about 4 or 5, the XBOX reboots. On the server, I don't see any messages in the DOS window. The location for where I want my content to go shows a "content.bin" only.
What have I obviously done wrong?
Post by: node21 on September 19, 2010, 10:27:00 AM
I don't know what would cause the reboot...but here's what you've obviously done wrong....
The path on the "server" where files get stored MUST mirror the exact path that they reside on the 360.
In your case, you indicated that your content is on USB:, but your server config doesn't have a drive mapping for that device (it's commented out near the top). Give the server some idea of where it should store USB: content, and it should all be fine.

Ahhh, ok. For whatever reason, I interpreted the options in the configuration as only requiring ONE location. So I've now defined a HDD1 and USB location on my server.
The files are now copying with no issues so far so that appears to have resolved the reset issue.

My XBLA content is on the USB, whereas the DLC and Updates are on the internal HDD. My XBLA syncs just fine. My Content is located:
Usb0:\Content (XBLA Here)
Hdd1:\Content (DLC)
Hdd1:\Cache (Title Updates)
Is there a way to add three CONTENT_BIN_PATH locations or something?
My server config looks
CODE
DEFINE_HDD1 = D:\Content Server\HDD
DEFINE_USB0 = D:\Content Server\USB
CONTENT_BIN_PATH = Usb0:\Content\
Things may have changed, but back when I first JTAG'd, DLC and Title Updates HAD to be on the internal HDD and XBLA could be located on the external USB drive. Hence my seperation of content
Post by: node21 on September 20, 2010, 04:25:00 PM
But I think you are confusing the CONTENT_BIN_PATH with defining directories.
CONTENT_BIN_PATH is a singleton, and tells the server on which of the other paths you want to store the "content.bin" file. There's no reason you'd ever need more than one...
Go ahead and define a single Hdd1: and a single Usb0: on the server, and every one of your 360s will be able to put content on the server in those two volumes.
Post by: tstein on September 20, 2010, 05:14:00 PM
I think my assumption was that if I click both right after xm360 loaded, it would sync ALL content, but the results were just the XBLA
I follow you on the CONTENT_ specifier.
Thanks node
Post by: node21 on September 21, 2010, 04:57:00 AM
So, if you are on the first screen, and you use RB to show only GOD containers, and sync...only GODs will sync.
If you are on the DLC scene and have chosen to see DLC for Forza, and sync...only Forza DLC will sync.
If you want to sync *everything* you will have to visit the first scene (and leave it on "all"), the DLC scene (and leave it on "all"), etc...

Any chance you could just always write the report files everytime the content.bin is updated?
I always wondered why this was not just automated...It would save some steps that I do very frequently...and would make my next request unnecessary...
if no on earlier request, any chance we could get a custom FTP command to make XM360 on XB write the report files? My computer is a long way from my TV and I always am walking back and forth just to tell XM360 to write updated reports...then walking back to computer to FTP the reports and look at them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanks for the donation! Unfortunately, both of these requests would require some *real* effort. The scenes that currently write the reports are the *only* scenes that actually have all of the required data... In other words, when you launch xm360, it doesn't even know about DLC (for example) until you enter the DLC scene.
I'll look into it to see how much of an effort it would really be.

I am testing with 2.0...I found a small problem with RESC and RPTS FTP commands...
Did a full scan and created reports from the XBOX XM360 UI as normal...
Then went back to computer and uploaded a missing XBLA game...via FileZilla...
Issued custom FTP command RESC (connection timed out)...waited 5 minutes or so to let it finish rescanning...
Reconnected FTP and was able to verify that content.bin timestamp had changed....
Issued custom FTP command RPTS returned quickly and was able to verify that report timestamps had changed...
FTPed the reports back to computer and the XBLA game was still listed as missing...
repeated all the steps a 2nd time....still shown as missing from the report...
Went back to XBOX and check the XM360 GUI...Stills shows as missing in the collection management GUI...
Did rescan from XBOX XM360 GUI...now the XBLA game is FOUND and shown as HAVE and the report...
Something seems wrong with the RESC FTP command...seems like the rescan did not work correctly...
Am I missing something obvious here? This is my first time using RESC....maybe I am misunderstanding the expected behaviour here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Just upgraded to the latest version and noticed some odd things and not sure if these have been addressed before:
1) When using xm360server to update the DLC, it seems to indicate that it is update some new titles and exits successfully. However, when running the same command immediately afterwards, it indicates it is updating the same content again. I checked the files, and the tiles that were updated were already in the csv. It also does the same thing with a few titles for XBLA.
2) xm360server doesn't seem to download all the titles, and this is especially noticeable with the DLC database. I ran the perl scripts, and the files sizes are significantly higher for the DLC.csv (~400K vs. ~900K), and to a lesser extent, the XBLA titles as well.
3) When generating reports, should it also show titles that are not matched?
Thanks, for your hard work and donation sent!

1) That's because it has no concept of "time". If a title is listed as updated "today", every single time you tell it to update it will fetch the updates.
2) This has never been reported, and is quite worrisome. The perl version doesn't know anything about dates...it just grabs the world. Is the clock/date on your computer correct? Are you downloading from the same region in both cases? Are you downloading from the region with the same clock settings as your PC (that shouldn't matter since it's all GMT).
3) You'll have to clarify what you mean here.
(Not sure if you are talking about a new donation, or an old one...nothing new received, so check where you sent it? Anyway, thanks for the thought! )

The reason the perl downloader ends up with a MUCH bigger file that the xm360_server downloader is simply because the perl downloader is stupid.
There are TONS of duplicates in the resulting file. You see, the marketplace lists, for example, Band Hero, and Band Hero II...They both have TONS of DLC...yet, all of the DLC for each is the same. The perl scraper doesn't know this, and grabs them all (and xm360 filters the duplicates). Xm360_server understands this, builds an internal map, and only spits out the unique DLC. So, rest assured, you aren't missing anything by using the server.
As far as noting DLC that you have, but wasn't matched...It's there already. In the "DLC that you have" section of the report, the second column of the CSV file is either "HAVE", or "HAVE_BUT_NOT_IN_DB".
Lastly, donation received, thanks!

Just an observation, but I noticed that the .exe omits some content that the perl script catches. I noticed that several Lips DLC are listed in the perl .csv but not the .exe csv. This may be the case with other content as well. Has anybody else experienced this? (BTW, Region = US)

Is there any method to retrieve the free space on a device from xm360?
If not, any chance you could implement some free space reporting in the UI and also via custom FTP command?
I have 640GB internal drive but am constantly near capacity...and have to walk to xbox and switch to other apps to get capacity info....
Getting VERY close to being able to do everything remotely from my computer and FTP to XM360...but this piece still missing

One more thing I noticed...alot of times it won't list DLC as missing until you have at least 1 piece of DLC for that title (even if title is NOT ignored)...is this expected?
Yes, that is entirely intentional. Otherwise, imagine what your report would look like...there's a million titles out there that have DLC which you couldn't care less about...and EVERY single one of those would be listed as "MISSING". Check the first line of the output report, I think there's a hint there. :-)

I'm about to have a bit of a look/test and try to get the server working. There was a bunch of stuff that may have been in the previous thread that I can't reference regarding a couple of issues (My memory sux) so I'll refrain for a while untill I've had time to have a decent look. I'm not expecting any great problems but there was one issue I was having using the (server) /L without the /U and getting strange results (I can't remember if anything was asked/answered on the issue) There may have been other causes of the issues I was having ... Anyway like I said before I get carried away detailing a problem that prolly doesn't exist, Thanx again for supporting XM and ur contribution. The scene wouldn't be what it is without your (and others) selfless contributions. Hmmm ...

Anyway just an idea that came to me yesterday after having to spend ages reading/writing hex to uncorrupt and unbann a couple of profiles only to find that two of the profiles had exactly the same hex ID with the exception of one byte in the middle! In my efforts to speed things along that I had acidentaly copied one over the other which caused no end of drama .. Anyway just an idea/suggestion. I still havent had time to have a proper look at the new one BUT:
I noticed on the earlier version when it was updated to reflect an unlock without rescan that it would still come up as locked on the next reboot (untill next rescan)

A much needed function for any app would be the ability to easily do a profile backup (Preferably something that can extract the gamertag) I reckon XM360 would be well suited to doing that given the other existing features etc..
I noticed on the earlier version when it was updated to reflect an unlock without rescan that it would still come up as locked on the next reboot (untill next rescan)
I tried really hard, at one point in time, to handle this (profile backups)...but I couldn't, under any circumstances, read (copy/backup) the currently logged in profile...and since that was likely to be the one you cared most about, I stopped working on it.
You'd have to be specific about what you unlocked that came back as locked until you did a rescan. I found and fixed one of those recently, so it could be gone.

great idea...but it would require a port of zlib, and then extensive work to the ftp server. then...assuming I actually wanted to take advantage of it in xm360, I'd need to write the client part as well. Just too many other things need doing before I'm going to get around to this...hopefully someone else ports this stuff to the 360 and makes it available for everyone...

I think most ppl would accept not using the profile/file in use as u can easy run xm360 without signing-in untill after doing all the profile management etc.. There doesn't seem a need to sign-in untill one boots a game in which case one may sign-in a few etc.. They ability just to do that stuff is huge as even without the ability to copy the signed-in GT (not even NXE will attempt moving a signed-in GT)
At any rate it is merely a suggestion, as it saves the hassle of using either a 3rd party app (none anywhere near stable 2 date) to extract/inject onto USBmu OR pulling apart a HDD to plug into PC etc.. I thought it worth a second mention. At any rate we are as always eternally gratefull for any support/development.

Using Excel, I took a look at both files. I filtered out for unique content, and then compared the two files highlighting any duplicates so that the "missed" files would stand out. There were many entries not present in the .exe generated CSV such as:
Come Away With Me
Virtual Insanity
People Are People
etc...
I know that some songs are included in song packs, and some are standalone, but they should all carry unique IDs right? In any case, other content may be missed, but I only looked at one title. Is there something amiss?

I cant think of any other games that might have huge collections at the moment but I am sure others exsist.

It already does all of that. Hit "RB" when in the DLC scene to have it show you everything, instead of only what you have. Also, if you generate a report it will tell you what you have, what your missing, and what you have but wasn't found in the online scrape. And it will do this for every title for which you have at least one piece of DLC.

Sorry if I didn't make that clear, I understand that external DLC isn't possible as of yet, unless you format a drive through NXE, even then you are limited in space.
I was just thinking of a manager, which would allow you to transfer DLC from seperate hard drives to save space directly from the 360, as I have a large external hard drive connected at all times. It sounds like the server component will do just that with a PC. I will have to mess around with it later.
Once again, great work.

Yep...I've got my *entire* 360 collection on my homeserver. It is always on, and always running xm360server. Any of the 360s in my house can connect to it and pull whatever content they want in that moment. Then delete it when they are done to make space... Only limitation is the speed of the network (which is slower than a hard drive, obviously...)

I actually asked you about it before in PM's and you said it was trivial
I think aside from the UTF-8 issue the biggest thing would be no longer using the CSV format or at least using quotes around each entry or something aside from commas since any items that have commas in them end up being formatted incorrectly.
For example: [ACE COMBAT 6],2008/06/25,30,4.00,46,DARK, SHINING SET,874E20BCD6B5A2FAFC1EA424F7D28A8D30D44A7B4E
The title of the item "DARK, SHINING SET" gets split incorrectly due to the comma whereas being
"[ACE COMBAT 6]","2008/06/25","30","4.00","46","DARK, SHINING SET","874E20BCD6B5A2FAFC1EA424F7D28A8D30D44A7B4E"
would be formatted correctly
Yeah, but the number of requests I get are somewhat overwhelming...I probably just lost track of this one.
The problem with just putting everything in double quotes is that as soon as something actually has double quotes in the title, it will also break... But I'll probably change the format anyway.

The only thing I noticed was that the DLC_titles.csv was still the old format so it imports just the same with the comma errors.
Yeah, I didn't touch the generators yet. What title gets imported wrong?

I've been very busy lately (haven't had much time to do app testing etc..)
I have struck a problem (I was wondering if anyone else had xperianced same) with Pinball FX2. It doesn't seem to behave as a normal Arcade game and wont boot once patched (I think the core game is meant to be free and al the 'tables' are sold in DLC packs) It could be something like the game-room situation?? Anyway I was wanting to float this and see what others have encountered (I heard rumors of a new XBLA type that used some sort of checks?? - Probably fiction but you never know ..)
IF in-fact it is just not working because it's already 'free' and the yaris patch somehow ruins the header - Then can we have a way of marking games 'Not To Be Patched' somehow? either GUI or config script. Sorry I didn't post this a couple of weeks ago but I've been on holidays.

I don't recall if I've run it through xm360's unlock or not...and I haven't looked at it to see if xm360 would mess it up. Anyone else able to chime in?
This is a pretty timely bug report (if it ends up being true), since I planned to publicly release 2.0d tonight or tomorrow. I'd rather deal with issue before that happens.

Another possibility instead of rewriting the input code would be just having the report output everything, including files that have no DLC for them (Since the current reports don't show titles with no DLC) in the missing section.

OK, I'll play around with it more, I guess now that I think about it, it could perhaps be due to some form of data corruption somewhere,... Hmm(Although I was sure I covered all the bases ...) Are you guys using patched DLC?? (In a backup capacity of course :-)

Like Dan (a few posts up) I'm also having a problem with pinball fx2. It's showing as unlocked in xm360 but when i try to play on any of the tables they only allow trial game. Weird as I only use your program to unlock my content and have for some time now. It's the only one i've had problem with so far.
Not sure what the issue is

I don't know. I think the main xbla download is already "unlocked" (it's free). But the DLC is locked (since you can download trial versions of each table, and pay to unlock them.) This is very similar to the gameroom title in that it's the DLC that is locked... Sadly, like the gameroom, it's likely that this DLC doesn't follow the normal "yaris" pattern of unlocking, and, in that case, it will fall into the small bucket of stuff that just isn't handled by xm360.

Ok thanks for the heads up dude.
Another question I have is in relation to the generated XBLA & DLC reports. Is there any way to get the program to push them automatically to pc (In conjunction with XM360 Server running) as this would negate the need to ftp into the 360. I.e if i have server running and XM360 connected to it and then generate either an XBLA report or DLC report it would save it to the path i've set in the .ini as usual but would then also push it to my pc through the server facility. Or I can request to Fetch it.
Is this even possible ? I hope you understand what i'm trying to get across. Is this feature already there ? Maybe i've missed it
Anyway as always this is the most used program on my JTag by a million miles. Thanks for all your great work

I know exactly what you are saying...as it's been on my to-do list for some time...
Right now I'm pretty busy with FreeStyleDash, but when I get back to xm360, this feature is likely going to be added first. There's one small issue with it...what should the filename be on the server? It can't be as simple as DLC_report.txt or something like that, since if you have multiple 360s, there's no way of knowing which one generated the report... What I'm thinking of doing is allowing you to "name" each 360 via it's IP address (this is already supported actually...it just knows not to list itself in the list of remote connections). Then, I could use the name in the filename...and, if the name isn't set, I can just use the IP address as the name and hope that your 360s have different IPs.

Also as far as the database goes, would it be possible to build the scraper update function into the actual program so running the updates wouldn't even require a PC? I guess it would be more of a how difficult since I'm sure it would be possible with everything you have already done.

Today I encountered a bug which i've noticed once before. It may be my system but I thought i'd share with you in case you or somebody else has come across it.
I've transfered some DLC across using XM360 Server. As soon as it has finished i've left XM360 Server running on my PC in the background and have used 'Unlock DLC'. This has resulted in the program Hanging/Freezing for about 2 mins. As soon as I terminated XM360 Server on my PC XM360 sprung to life instantaneously telling me it had unlocked the files I was asking it to.
Like I say i've noticed this once before but just passed it off at the time but today it really caught my attention.
Wondered wether you've come across this. Probably nothing to worry about
Hope it helps

1. It was from the XM360 server to the 360.
2. 6 items of DLC for the same XBLA title. (Pinball FX2). I have about 130 Items of DLC.
I had just ran a repair filenames on the 6 DLC which came back with '0' corrected. I then clicked on unlock. I had the cursor on the actual title name so that only the 6 items of dlc were showing in the right hand pane.
I had forgotten to shutdown the XM360 Server on my PC at the time as when it had hung there for a few minutes I suddenly remembered it had happened before and leaned across and shut it down on my pc. Straight away XM360 blade popped up that it had unlocked 6 DLC successfully. I can run the DLC 'Tables' within Pinball FX2 flawlessly so XM360 did it's unlock job successfully.
It just struck me as odd so thought i'd bring it to your attention for a look. (On a side note i have Dash Launch 2.07 setup so as if my xbox has any problems it will reboot rather than freeze so I don't think it was some sort of conflict with that)
Hope the info helps

Added OTHER_XBOX_FTP_AUTOCONNECT (tells XM360 to automatically connect to a remote instance (xm360_server) on startup.
Added UPLOAD_REPORTS (tells xm360 to automatically ftp generated reports to the connected remote instance's hdd1:, also works in conjunction with previous WRITE_REPORTS_ON_STARTUP feature if you are AUTOCONNECTing)
Added THIS_XBOX_NAME (will be appended to the filename of the uploaded reports if defined. useful if you upload from multiple 360s)

its this program im talking about:
Ive also tried starting up xm360server.exe and its looking for connections om ip: 192.168.0.199.. but how do i tell xm360 on my Xbox to connect at that ip?

It seems you are doing a few things wrong.
And both involve configuration.
In order for xm360server.exe /X to create the xbla_titles.csv file, it has to know where to put it...and it won't put it in the "current directory". You should open and read your .cfg file for the server. You probably haven't defined an hdd1: for it to put the file in. (The reason it needs this file to exist in a virtual 360 drive is so that it can automatically serve it up to the 360 that connects to it.)
To get the 360 to connect to the server, you also need to edit the configuration file on the 360. Go read xm360.cfg from the same directory that xm360.xex is sitting in on your 360. There's a section in that file where you define the "remote" boxes (which could be a server, or other 360s running xm360).
I'd give more precise answers, but I'm at work, and don't have access to my samples.
Good luck, and let me know if you are still stuck.
(a side note: still haven't released the most recent version that I spoke of up above...I've been working on the coolest thing since sliced bread in FSD that I'm trying to wrap up for a near future release...then I'll get back to xm360 again. [No, it's not a media player] )

Well, maybe it isn't quite as cool as sliced bread... Sliced bread is awfully cool.
The story is this: After finishing the work on the smb: (samba) client in FSD that allows your 360 to hop on your home network and browse network shares...it became obvious that the next step would be to allow your 360 to be an smb: (samba) server. This would allow (for example) two very cool things:
#1) if you have 2 360s, one could browse the other via samba allowing you to move content between the two in a pretty simple manner.
#2) all of these utilities that can unrar/ISO2GOD/etc. that use FTP to move the content to the 360 after they have finished their work no longer have to do that... you can simple map a network drive (say X:\) to be your 360...and drag and drop files to the 360 as if it were any other shared drive on your network.
That's the short story. And it works.
The longer version is that it isn't done yet. I've found at least one functional problem. And, after that is solved, there are probably others to be found. And, besides that, I haven't built all of the surrounding code that will let it have multiple simultaneous connections (may skip this for the first release), proper error handling (for now it terminates FSD when it encounters a network glitch), user authentication (360 shares are shared to anyone on your local network, will probably leave this for first release). So, there's real work to do.
However, once it's done, the nice part is that it is all in a library. Any other 360 app that wants these abilities can have and use the library. I have vague plans to build it into xm360 as well, for example, but FSD comes first.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Been looking over the server part first from beginning (as you suggested, CVS later
) and for the life of me I could not see a part for telling where the server is then I saw it under:## Configuration of other 360s to find looks like this. (Stupid me thought that was just for other consoles and not the PC server software)
So I added the PC details to the top section of that.
Ran xm360server.exe (without any /? yet) then loaded the console xm360 and choose Remote Connection and horray is shows the PC server, connects now it shows Get / Put / Both.
After that fun I decided to try the next part (keeping the CVS upto date).
Edited xm360.cfg to enable: (hopefully right)
EXTRA_XBLA_SEARCH_PATH = hdd1:\xbla
CONTENT_BIN_PATH = hdd1:\Apps\xm360
Then edited the xm360server.exe to define the xbox HDD1.
With the server window still open I opened another one this time with the /X command but some reason it wont find the hdd1 (I did test DEFINE_HDD1 = c:\1 which worked, but DEFINE_HDD1 = hdd1:\ or hdd1:\Apps\xm360 did not).

You didn't state whether or not the 360 can see actual remote content...I'll assume that it can't, for now, since it seems like you don't have the server configured properly.
Forget about xm360.cfg on the xbox. It knows nothing about xm360server. As far as the 360 is concerned, it is connecting to another xbox...It has no clue that your xm360server is actually a PC masquerading as a 360.
EXTRA_XBLA_SEARCH_PATH = hdd1:\xbla
This setting has nothing to do with what you are trying to accomplish. It's only for people that want to specify a specific alternate path for their XMBA content (maybe on a USB: drive, for example) Comment it out.
CONTENT_BIN_PATH = hdd1:\Apps\xm360
This settings just tells the 360 where to store it's "database" file, called content.bin. You can put it where-ever you want, or leave it commented out.
So, now that the client 360 can connect to the server. Let's get the server configured correctly. It's a PC. A PC that wants to pretend that it's a 360. So, the most important thing to do is tell the server what folder it should pretend is hdd1:.
So, you MUST do something like this:
DEFINE_HDD1 = c:\xbox_hdd1
in xm360server.cfg, and make sure that the directory exists.
That should be good enough to make it work. Try running it with /X and it should create a new xml file in that directory...and if you then connect to the server from the 360, it should automatically download that xml file.

I have the following problem:
My entire collection is mirrored on a Networked attached storage which I have set up in XM360 to synch with my JTAG box.
However, due to poor naming of some DLC and/or truncated file names on the NAS and the synching feature of XM360, I ended up with a lot of duplicate XBLA and DLC Files. It was my fault, because I let XM360 restore the filenames and later on I FTPd some things myself which caused the duplicates.
Is it possible to sort out this mess with XM360 or any other app? I'd need something that deletes all duplicates on my Xbox360, renames the remaining files correctly and does the same thing on the NAS.
Thanks in advance and great App btw

Following problem with Xm360. I have several dlc that appear in the report as missing
"Rock Band 2","MISSING","Full Song - ""Kiss Kiss Bang Bang""","D95A2C519E447316E63536637B69639F355B4B6645"
at the end of the report this missing dlc is listed as not matchable
"Rock Band 2","HAVE_BUT_NOT_IN_DB","""Kiss Kiss Bang Bang""","Hdd1:\Content\0000000000000000\45410869\00000002\D95A2C519E447316E63536637B69639F355B4B6645"
Someone has a solution to this or can explain to me why this occurs?
