Shoutcast On 360
« on: January 06, 2006, 12:26:00 PM »

I know it's a little bit of a workaround, but you can kinda get shoutcast working on the 360. I was thinking of playing around with a few different things, but my computer bios went screwy and so now i'm stuck without my main machine (if anybody has any experience replacing the bios on an intel 865PERL motherboard feel free to email me). in the meantime, i was playing pgr3 and wanted to listen to something different. so i set up winamp with streamripper on my laptop. if you share that folder and tell the xbox to play all, it will play all of the songs that you are ripping to your computer (no need to refresh). so you can essentially listen to your favorite shoutcast stations while playing your favorite games. i haven't fully tested this yet, so i won't tell you that it works 100% perfectly, but so far i've had no problems. and that's with the crappy 802.11b network card i have in there.
