How To Discover Shares?
« on: December 11, 2003, 03:10:00 PM »
Hello,

Yes i looked.

I'am a CCXstream user that just updated to XBMC. My question is how to configure the .XML with a syntax to Discover Shares. Before with XBMP i used this

     <share>
      <name>Discover XBMSP Shares</name>
      <url>xbmsp://*</url>
      <cachesize>8192</cachesize>


This was very convient and also let me network easier. Anybody with insight please drop a line.

Tell me what you think! I compared it with RelaX and find RelaX MUCH faster and stable...

DrunkPenguin,

No i have not yet. Its this new port system they've added to it that throws it off.
I wonder if its possible now. If i do find out i'll surely keep you updated.



Thanks dacke, i've give it a try sometime.

I apologize Dacke,

It appears i've been misunderstood. Its my fault for not making it clear.

I used to use this for XBMP:

<share>
<name>Discover XBMSP Shares</name>
<url>xbmsp://*</url>
<cachesize>8192</cachesize>


I'am aware the syntax is different. So i tried this when i got to XBMC:

   <bookmark>
     <name>Discover XBMS Shares</name>
     <path>xbms://*:1400/</path>
   </bookmark>


It didn't work. By adding the * where the IP is XBMP would search whatever is conncted and shared and list it. Example i have two pcs and my xbox hooked up to a router. Both PCs sharing folders using CCXstream. By clicking that button with the syntax above, it would list the 2 computers on the screen. Which would save time in making a button for every folder. I've tried some other combinations using the astrik (*). But i haven't gotten it to work.



As of yet this question has not been answered.

But thanks for looking.


Yes before doing this i was aware that the begining syntax is slightly different.
